Elsom Cellars — Restaurant in Seattle

I consider Elsom to be one of the more refined wineries for Washington State that remains fairly small. Jodi (the winemaker) continues to maintain and improve her French influenced style, particularly in her blends, and I have followed her since her tasting room was in Woodinville (shared with Celaeno, another great winemaker!). Her wines are not the cheapest ($40+), but if you need a recommendation, how about this: I have been her wine club member for close to a decade and that membership never lapsed. I am just now opening her 2009 and 2010 vintages, and they are tasting phenomenal. The staff here is always enthusiastic and happy to see you. They know the stories behind the wines and their new place in SoDo is also an event space that you can book.

I can't comment on the wine because I didn't have any, but my friends loved the grenache! Looking at the itemized receipt, the albarino was also popular.

I would host an event here again in the future. Easy to work with, affordable, and a great inside and outside area. They made it...

Wow! We LOVE visiting winery tasting rooms but this one is second to none! VERY personable and friendly staff (we had Lewissa and Allen) that was extremely knowledgeable (that’s not always the case) about Elsom wines. Time flew by. We enjoyed delicious charcuterie boards that paired perfectly with the flight of wines we tasted. The 2018 Syrah and 2020 Grenache were my favorites but ALL the Waimea were delicious. On this particular day, those two just stood out. If you’re catching a Seahawks, Mariners or Sounders game this is a no brained before the game. If not, make THIS urban winery tasting room your final destination of the day. You...
