About this experience

Ditch the wine snobbery. This wine pairing tour is about discovering what you actually like.

The tour includes tastings from multiple tasting rooms and restaurants with a focus on Northwest wine. Food parings and tastings are substantial enough that you'll want to show up ready to eat.

Our guides know their stuff about wine, but they're not here to lecture. They'll give you the context you need, then let you explore your own palate. Write your own tasting notes. Trust your taste buds over anyone's opinion.

The itinerary flexes based on what's pouring best that day and what your group gravitates toward. No rigid schedule, no pretentious wine-speak—just quality pours, great pairings, and the freedom to form your own opinions.

This tour is designed for everyone, including those with dietary restrictions and mobility limitations. We prefer to keep to tour 21+, but please reach out if you would like to bring a young adult.

Cheers!
