A Wine Novice’s Weekend Guide to the Walla Walla Valley | Eater Seattle
"A small, appointment-only tasting room in the impulse-item village near the airport run by Keith Johnson, an up-and-coming talent focused on low-intervention winemaking. Production methods include foot-crushed grapes, native yeast, minimal SO2, neutral barrels, and no filtering, yielding natural, minimalist wines that are balanced but a little wild — highlighted by a velveteen French Creek Vineyard bottle (a moody mourvèdre/syrah/grenache blend). Bottles run roughly $28–$75, and visits are by appointment only." - Meg van Huygen
Really interesting minimalist wines, the sort of wines other wine makers seek out. Shelly is extremely knowledgeable. Requires an appointment in advance.

I went to dinner in Seattle and had 2 glasses of French Creek Red Wine. Definitely going to order a case for home!

Fantastic wine from an amazing winemaker. I'd stop here on every future visit to the airport region.
