At Boudreaux Cellars we try to get involved in events that we think people will enjoy. Everything from a winemaker cruise in the San Juan Islands to winemaker dinners. We also believe in giving back to the community by being involved in several charity events, like the Auction of Washington Wines benefiting Children's Hospital.
Winemaker Rob Newsom has led 16 expeditions into the Alaska Range, two Himalayan expeditions into the Everest region, para glided from dizzying summits, fly fished for giant tarpon, barracuda, permit, and bonefish, climbed most of the major peaks in Washington, summited four of the seven highest peaks in North America, floated the Grand Canyon in a wooden dory, and grew up in the woods and bayous of North Louisiana. Here at Boudreaux Cellars, adventure is a given. It is going to happen.
