Trust Cellars is the dream of Steve Brooks and wife Lori (both former CNN journalists) to move to Washington State and make wine. It's a long way, and a radical lifestyle change, from urban Atlanta to the small town dust of Eastern Washington.
Steve Brooks, in his former life as a journalist for CNN, got to know a thing or two about wine because he traveled and he drank it--all over the world. "I ate out a lot!" he said. "The highlight of any exhausting, miserably long work day was the quest for the best local food. Many a meal--with lots of local wine, if available--was shared with colleagues as we swapped stories of our past adventures.
"I've always associated those good times with food and drink. In short, I became a foodie."

This is incredible juice. Trust Syrah 08 follows the style of past vintages - it's more like a great Northern Rhone Syrah than most New World Syrahs. Smoky blackberry, black raspberry and sweet red cherry are woven with ribbons of five-spice a...

Pale pink with a light orange tinge, this smells like summer in a glass: honeydew, white flowers, pineapple, and fresh-cut grass. Along with pineapple flavors, we see mineral and herbal complexities here that go well beyond the typical Rosé porch-...
