Walla Walla's Fall Release weekend, previously popularly known as "Cayuse release weekend", is coming up on November 6th-8th. For people planning to attend, Walla Walla Wine News has published a .pdf that includes many winery hours as well as information on new releases. Find it here. As noted on the .pdf, for wineries not listed, refer to their regular hours. The best way to get a print summary of those hours is the (free) maps from the Walla Walla Valley Wine Alliance that many wineries carry.

People planning to travel to Walla Walla can also refer to my 2009 Spring Release report (Note: opens .pdf) for information about various wineries and wines (see additional reports in the right hand column of the blog). Feel free to write if you have specific questions about wineries or are looking for suggestions.

Look for updates from Walla Walla over the course of the next several days and a full write-up in the future.
