Beaumont Cellars Winery — Attraction in Quincy

Well we are somewhat local and decided earlier in the week that we would show our friends crescent bar and the awesome additions of Beaumont cellars. So we sent off to do some wine for wasting. We went up to the front door and were greeted by two nice young gentlemen who asked us if we were here for the concert. I said I didn’t see anything on social media about a concert and they didn’t seem to know anything about social media. Sure enough two hours previous my wife said they made a post. Anyways I didn’t want to take away from what our friends thought of crescent bar so I gladly told them I would pay the $100 for four of us to sit outside (you wouldn’t go outside unless you paid $25). Unfortunately card readers were not working so we went inside. When I got inside my wife and her two friends were being interrogated by the employee Karen (assuming her name is Karen) telling them in a direct yet RUDE voice what was going down. I said nicely that I was paying for the very body to go outside to the “concert” and it was extremely awkward as she seemed to be annoyed we were even there.

We went outside. The flatbread pizzas were amazing. The wine was… overpriced (I love all wine and not very picky). We laughed at some older people that were drunk and honestly waited for somebody to kick them off because of the vibe we got coming in.

Definitely don’t go here on a Friday or Saturday night. We got three flatbreads that didn’t really fill us up and two bottles of wine and it was over $300. We got horrible service but got one sweet lady when was awesome and brought us some waters. It was not a good experience.

Only way I would return is is was freee and I could just get the flatbread with a wine bottle to go. Save yourself and just watch the sunset somewhere else they obviously think they’d place is not what it appears. Side note we paid $25 to see somebody we didn’t want to see… which we were okay with but could see most concerts on the hill at gorge for twice the cost lol. For us it was the rude lady that just amazed us and ruined our fist impression.

I gave one star because eh flatbreads were amazing.. then again i didn’t eat all day. But I think the flatbreads were still amazing lol. Maybe you’re not can just get...

We stopped in to visit over Labor Day weekend (on our way to DMB at The Gorge) and are certainly glad we did! Past reviews certainly do justice to the beautiful winery and grounds, and the wines themselves were exceptional and impressive, full of character and individual expression.

I’d initially been surprised at the number and variety of offerings, concerned that the winery was trying to do too much, but learned that the vintner does not make every wine each year - only those whose harvests are most promising. Whites offered delicacy, nuance, and pleasant, food-friendly acidity. Reds came in shades of depth, ripeness, and spice, full-fleshed with many layers of complexity.

We spoke afterwards with the winemaker, Pete, and his wife, Katie, and it was clear from both of them and their wines that this is a labor of passion and love for what the fruit of Washington can provide in this lovely climate. We also had loads of fun with Tara guiding us through our tasting, showing us the full range of what Beaumont Cellars has to offer.

We left with more wine that we’d expected to buy - happy, surprising purchases that we can’t wait to open and share with friends. While we’re sad not to live closer and visit again soon, we’re somewhat comforted by the fact that they also have a location in Woodinville, which we plan to visit soon and often.

So, our advice is to run, not walk, to Beaumont at your next opportunity! Enjoy their lovely patio, taste all that you can, be sure to chat with their whole family, and don’t miss saying hello to the winery dogs - Max and Murphy - on your way out.

Cheers, Beaumont! We can’t wait for the Aglianico to be...

Very money minded operation - $10 per tasting. We were a group of 3 and we did tastings - bought 2 bottles worth $60. Apparently since it was 2 bottles purchased, only 2 tastings were free. The third wine tasting was still charged $10. I felt there's too much focus on wine tasting fee and tips. Tip - Be careful of the cheese in their refrigerator and other food items and double check the expiration date. The cheese we bought and opened had a best buy date one year ago. We were saved because upon cutting the cheese, we saw weird yellow coloration and we threw it away. I'm very considerate and it's rare for me to give 1 star - but my experience here...
