Andrew Brown, Winemaker

Andrew Brown, Winemaker

Andrew’s family has been farming in the Walla Walla Valley for generations. Andrew’s interest in wine and cider production grew out of his family’s vineyards and orchards. He left the Walla Walla Valley to attend Oregon State University, where he studied sciences and remains a diehard Beaver fan to this day. After college Andrew returned to the Walla Walla Valley and then caught the winemaking bug while working with Rich Funk of Saviah Cellars. Andrew developed his winemaking skill under Rich before taking over as head winemaker and cider maker for Watermill Winery and Blue Mountain Cider in 2008. When not supervising winery and cider operations, Andrew is active in the local Milton-Freewater community through youth sports and volunteer work.
