The Elevated Tasting Experience

The Ultimate Wine Experience. Here at Dirty Laundry, we strive to provide our visitors a fun and unique experience in all that we offer. So when we decided to put forth an elevated tasting experience, we wanted it to be something very special.

Your guide will be a certified WSET certified wine expert who will begin your experience with a sparkling wine toast and cellar tour that includes insights into how we make our internationally recognized, award-winning wines. In the cellar, you’ll experience a barrel tasting utilizing the same method that our winemaker employs to assess the wine’s development.

In our “Dirty Laundry Upstairs” portion, we’ll take you up to our private boardroom where your small group will relax at a sit-down, curated, detailed tasting of many of our premium offerings. They’ll be served in luxurious stemware and will be paired with local artisan meats and cheeses. You’ll be encouraged to ask questions at any time and those new to wine-tasting will learn characteristics of differing varietals. Be the wine expert at your next party!

In order to keep the 60 minute experience an intimate one, space is very limited. We advise against waiting until the “day-of” to make your reservation.
