WSU Viticulture and Enology Program
Endowment Winner |

Melissa was
born and raised in Spokane. She has B.S. in Chemistry from
Western Washington. In the spring of 2004 she began taking
courses in the Viticulture and Enology program at WSU. Melissa
research focuses on the impact of finding agents on the sensory
and chemical properties of Washington State white wine. The
project involves working with large production of wine and
identifying differences in aroma, flavor and mouth feel that
each fining agent imparts on the wine. She hopes this
research will provide valuable data and knowledge pertinent to
Washington’s wine industry. Melissa hopes some day to establish
her own winery. |
