(TheNewsTribune) - Hispanics long have been the backbone of the Washington wine industry, but Victor Cruz blazed a trail when he opened award-winning Caon de Sol Winery in 1999 in Badger Canyon.
"At that time, mine was the only Hispanic-owned winery in the Northwest, which brought us a lot of attention," Cruz said. "A ton of people started coming to me, and I got to know them, and we've had a lot of success within the Hispanic community."
