Guest Winemaker: Cynthia Thompson of CAT Cellars

  • Anam Cara Cellars 306 North Main Street Newberg, OR, 97132 United States (map)

Producing just 100 cases, Cynthia Thompson’s CAT Cellars is one of the rarest wineries we’ve hosted over the years. Join us to welcome this emerging winemaker and taste her Cabernet Sauvignon and Tempranillo.

Cynthia has always had an interest and strength in comparing different wines, so when she realized she could turn her passion into a career, she jumped at the opportunity. She immersed herself in the field, from working hands on in the industry to passing the WSET 3, and French and Italian Wine Scholars.

After nearly six years, it was time to pursue winemaking. She created her first wines with a small wine collective in SE Portland, starring 2020 wines from Washington including a Rose’ of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Tempranillo.
