This week I was curious to see how our local Woodinville wine tasting rooms have decorated for the holidays. I set out to explore on a surprisingly sunny winter day.
My past visits to Columbia Winery made me suspect, rightly so, that they would be fabulously decorated for the holidays. I was eager to see what visual treats were in store for me!
I paused to admire the cute bauble-wearing reindeer by their front door.
Inside, the tasting room was eerily deserted. Well, it was early morning on a weekday, and I guess that gave me more time to snoop around and take photos without bothering any other tasting room guests.
Columbia Winery offers a charcuterie and cheese board; a cheese plate; and sampler spreads. Besides their $15 wine tasting, they offer a $30 “Big and Bold” red wine flight.
If you need last-minute Christmas gifts, check out the Columbia Winery shop area.
You can pick up extra virgin olive oil and other gourmet foods here at the tasting room’s shop.
No, I didn’t shake or peek closely at the wrapped presents under this beautiful Christmas tree!
I’m tempted to bring a couple visiting relatives here soon for a festive wine tasting session.
A large table is available for reserved private tasting events.
This table holds several wine-related Christmas gifts and stocking stuffer possibilities.
Their candle table is really hard to pass up. Nothing wrong with buying oneself a Christmas gift on impulse, is there?
The Pepper Bridge/Amavi tasting room is decked out for the holidays as well. I sure miss their outdoor patio! You can find the Pepper Bridge/Amavi tasting room in the back parking lot at The Hollywood Schoolhouse here in Woodinville.
You can buy recycled wine bottle candles at the little shop area here at Pepper Bridge/Amavi.
I have that exact same sequined tree skirt at my house!
I’ll leave you wondering if I happened to buy wine at every stop on this exploration journey! Check out my Part 2 post to see more festively decorated Woodinville tasting rooms!
