In the winery’s own words, via the Walla Walla Valley Wine Alliance member profile:
Echolands Winery was created in 2018 by Brad Bergman and Doug Frost, two Kansas City residents who believed in the Walla Walla Valley AVA’s ability to offer a distinct style of wine, one that would benefit from aging. Paired with Taylor Oswald, an eleven-year veteran of Walla Walla winemaking, the three partnered to craft responsibly produced wines that reflect the potential for elegant and balanced wines from this singular place.
