     As spring slowly makes its way into the northwest the wineries are also awakening from the quiet of winter. We are all busily making our preparations for Spring Barrel Tasting weekend, readying new wines to pour for you, and getting ready for the summer season.
     We have just completed our new web site at Olympic Peninsula Wineries . Visit us and see our exciting new look. You will enjoy lots of our new web site features including details about touring our wineries, a year 'round calendar of events, advance ticket purchases, and quick access to each winery's information... all in an easy to use format. Check us out and then come to the Peninsula for a memorable visit. We look forward to seeing you in the tasting rooms soon!
Save the Date - Spring Barrel Tasting
Sorensen Barrel RoomMemorial Day Weekend
May 26, 27, 28, 2008
11 am - 5 pm


Explore the subtle interplay of wine and oak and become part of the team as you sample some of Washington's best upcoming releases straight from the barrel. Each winery will pour you a sample of a wine 'in progress' and explain the role that barrel aging plays in their finished product. Visit a few wineries and pay the posted tasting fees or purchase the optional ticket and glass package for just $20.00 and get a keepsake commemorative wine glass and complimentary wine tasting. Tickets are available in advance on line, or at the door of participating wineries on a first come basis.

New Web site Launched
Peninsula Wineries We are excited to announce  the launch of our new  Olympic Peninsula Wineries web site. Custom designed, just for us, we have lots of great new features including a full calendar year of events, information and photos of each winery, winemaking history on the Olympic Peninsula, and notable  vineyards both east and west. And visit the Winemakers Blog where you can see the very latest news.

It is an easy to navigate site and you can quickly find the information you are looking for. And you will now be able to buy advance tickets to all events all year round.

We will be adding more links to local culinary events, fresh vegetable and fruit stands, cheesemakers, U-pick fields, and Farmers Markets in the near future.

So check us out and bookmark us as your reference for all things that are delicious on the
 Olympic Peninsula.

You must be 21 or over to purchase tickets for events and/or participate in wine tasting. Spring Barrel Tasting is a self guided wine tour that you may take in any order during the days of the event. Advance tickets are available on line at www.OlympicPeninsulaWineries.org or at the door of any participating winery on a first come basis on the days of the event. Tickets include a commemorative wine glass and a waiver of the tasting fees at each winery during the event. Tickets are not  required and you may visit any winery and participate by paying a nominal fee at each establishment..
Please Note: Due to  very limited parking and facilities at most of our small wineries, groups of more than 15 visitors traveling together cannot be accommodated during event weekends. Please call 1-800-785-5495 to arrange a special group tour for another time. The Olympic Peninsula Wineries encourages responsible wine touring and recommends that you have a designated driver in your group. !
