Bottling in Seattle

Our son, Brett, and daughter-in-law, Laura, are visiting us, flying out from the West Coast to be here with family for the holidays. They told us stories about how they volunteered to bottle wine in Seattle in October, an activity that we heartily endorse. They went to the Woodinville area where several wineries banded together to contract for a bottling line. Brett mentioned that they worked for Patterson Cellars and Finn Hill. Our son was working on uncrating the pallets full of bottle cases on to the conveyor and Laura functioned in many capacities including uncrating the boxes. Together, they put in 12 hours of work on the bottling line and said that it was a very physically taxing job but they would do it again.
I read more about the wineries on their website: Finn Hill and Patternson Cellars.
