Morgan Lee is a character, so it’s not surprising that he makes outstanding wines with character, too. Morgan is the rockstar winemaker for Two Vintners, Covington Cellars, and Block Wines. We recently spent an afternoon with him at his tasting room in Woodinville, had lots of laughs, shared stories, and tasted a range of amazing wines. Not only is Morgan a talented and skilled winemaker, but he also is one of the friendliest and funniest guys in the Washington wine industry.
