On Saturday June 24th, we attended the sold-out Santana Transmogrify Tour at Chateau Ste. Michelle Winery in Woodinville. Santana is a ten-time GRAMMY® Award and three-time Latin GRAMMY® Award-winning group let by Carlos Santana a true musician, artist and included in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Transmogrify tour kicked off at Chateau Ste.
