Nota Bene Cellars traces its legacy from the Négociant tradition, a French winemaking practice of sourcing grapes from disparate growers to craft unique wines. Master vintner Tim Narby has perfected this practice in the Pacific Northwest for four decades, highlighting Washington grape varieties from premium vineyards in the Yakima and Columbia River Valleys.
