Been here on two separate occasions years apart, and had a crummy experience both times. I want to like them because they share a parking lot with one of our favorite Woodinville wineries, Cougar Crest, which i highly recommend. But once there, don’t get pulled in by the cool looking cave entrance. Both times I’ve been here the 20-something employees seemed indifferent, preoccupied, and lacked basic knowledge about the wines. The last time we went will be the last time forever. We ordered 4 tastings, at which time she poured us our first wine, and then went about marking up menus for the next 15 – 20 minutes, occasionally tending to others who came in for wine, but never pouring another for us. It was so disorganized that we literally walked out without anyone noticing. Maybe their wines our good, I don’t know, we didn’t get to try them. And they, in turn, didn’t get any sales. Word to the wise, how about you have a standard tasting menu instead of trying to keep track of a «Pick 6» out of the List of 50 wines for each person. It not only takes forever, but there’s no way to keep track of who had how many of what. And maybe hire people who didn’t just turn 21, because they probably don’t know much about wine.

Great tasting room. The front desk clerk at our hotel recommended them, and I am happy they did. Easy to find and sand parking lot has a few other wineries to try too! Alison was great. Explained about the wines and very informative about the winery itself and the owner. Their tasting is self guided they have a great selection and you just pick the ones you want to try. They had a great selection of wines open! Everything I tasted was delicious even if not my favorite. I liked that the wine maker is very into wine/food pairing. It was great learning what each of their wines should technically go with. I usually don’t learn things when I am drinking but it was fun! It was a great experience and I highly recommend going their for a tasting.

So this was a pleasant surprise, their tasting room was tucked away pretty far back, but we manage to find it. How lucky are we! My 3 friends and I found this Gem. They have A LOT of wines for you to taste and for $ 10 you can try 5 – 6 I think. You get to pick from their I think about 25 different wines. What me and my friends did was each try a different one and shared so we got to try more types. I LOVED their Rose and also their Guietzmiener. Super yummy, they also have very good reds too, but I usually buy their whites because I have other reds I prefer more. Also some of their red’s price point is on the higher side and for those price points I can find better quality wine. Their wine club must be one of the best out their. Their lowest commitment is only 2 bottles per shipment twice a year so only 4 bottles. And the benefits are great. 15% off all wines and comp tasting for you and all the friend you bring. My friend ended up joining and I hopped on to use his discount! The girls/guys pouring are always friendly and knowledgable. Some are better pourers than others, but hey can’t complain! Def worth a visit.

Came here on a whim and am so pleased I did! We were greeted by Allison who was so knowledgeable and professional! The perk of tasting here is that you can choose what you sample, it’s not a set list. I keep going back to buy their blanc de blanc, sooo tasty! Definitely worth the stop!

Service was horrible & rude, policy did not follow the online offer for tasting fee’s. We will not be returning to this tasting room in Woodinville. Cave B in George WA was excellent and we thought we would receive the same service. We did not.

I would have loved to have tried the wine but the service was so slow we ended up walking out. Twenty minutes after we walked in and we still had no wine, I guess they were out of glasses and were busying themselves with reprinting of the tasting menus. Three different couple came in after us and we were still standing there waiting for the first pour as they were being accommodated. They were more attentive to others who wanted to have additional free tastings. We ended taking a few steps over to Cougars Winery for much more personable service and better ambiance.

My husband and I stayed here for my Birthday. Enjoyed our overnight getaway! Food at restaurant was wonderful. Sure enjoyed the cream onion soup and of course the lavender crème brulé!

FINALLY! You have come to woodinville! I am so happy! It is so hard to get out to the eastern washington location, as beautiful as it is, I wish I had cause to go more often! I drove through woodinville the other night and saw your A frame signs on the street and was super excited! Now I can enjoy your wines practically in my backyard! The tasting room is super cute with a nice patio area. The weather was 80 today and it was absolutely perfect weather out. We were practically the only one’s there! We really liked the Cab Franc, Tempranillo and the Cab Sav. The ’10 Chard was very refreshing too. We decided to get a bottle of the Can Franc and the Temp. this time around. We will definitely be coming back here in the future and bring some friends with us I am sure!
