THE NWACS RECOGNIZE EXCELLENT WINES, wineries and winemakers. Some of the wines that took top medals in 2022 are made in small quantities and the award-winning vintages may no longer be available. Fret not! Trust that an award-winning winery and winemaker will achieve quality, no matter the wine, grape or vintage. We encourage you to support your local winemakers. Here are some of the highlights from the 2022 Winners Circle to help whet your palate.
