Patterson Cellars announced the purchase of the former Tertulia Cellars winery and Whistling Hills Vineyard in the Walla Walla Valley and said it will move most of its production to the valley and open its fifth tasting room there. Terms weren’t disclosed.
The purchase includes Tertulia’s 9,200-square-foot production facility and tasting room space located in the southside of Walla Walla. It also includes a 14+ acre surrounding vineyard. A little over seven of those acres are currently planted, with room for an additional 1.4 acres. The Tertulia brand and inventory were not part of the sale.
