A Cross-Country Journey From News to Wine

He heard it through the grapevine: A TV producer follows his nose to a new career

Trust, says Brooks, is what his journey from news producer to winemaker is about, and it's also the name of his winery: Trust Cellars. And he shares that philosophy with his customers in a message on his wine bottle labels: "To change, to shift. To make an about-face. To move from a lifestyle rooted in technology and speed to an existence focusing on soil and sun. Taking a giant step requires trust. The trust of your family and friends...and the trust in yourself."

What a heartfelt journey

It is thrilling to see an article about Steve and Lori Brooks and their daring risk to pick up their lives and head out to Walla Walla. I have enjoyed Trust Cellars wines many times and while the wine alone is worth much attention, knowing the story behind this leap of faith makes it all the more interesting. Hats off to Steve and Lori, we benefit from their gutsy move, one that so many dream of but few actually put into motion.
