Over all the experience was really fun, the wine is reasonably priced and all enjoyable. A word of warning to those with nut allergies, even though the cheese board did not list nuts on the menu, they were still on the board.

I'm not a Wino, but this wine club has a great story behind it and a easy going place to chill. My friend likes the wine ?

We’re members of the wine club and enjoy our wine pickup tastings. Kudos to Kyle for his hosting skills! We always find a few more wines we like and “have to” bring home.

Excellent place for French wine that won’t break the bank! The wine club is a screaming deal.

I am absolutely in love with Princess and Bear Winery! As a member of their wine club, I have had the pleasure of working with their incredible wine concierge who is always so helpful and knowledgeable. The free wine tastings each month are a wonderful perk, and I am always excited to try the latest selections. The wines they select are like stepping into something French and fabulous, with rich and complex flavors that truly transport me to the vineyards of Bordeaux. I highly recommend Princess and Bear Winery to anyone who loves great wine and exceptional service. Thank you for making my wine journey so delightful!

I didn't know exactly which part of the business P&B occupied until we got in. Thankfully, our server explained it briefly.They are:An importerA wine barA bottle shopOccasional commissioner of private-labeled bottles.So you *can* actually get P&B wines, but they're much more like a store/bar. A goal here is to turn everybody on to wineries from Languedoc-Roussillon in southern France. That's just north of the Spanish border along the Mediterranean coast. They have an enormous map on the wall, and a smaller one they bring to your table so they can point to where the wineries are. The pride of place is strong here. The American owners moved there full-time but still run the Seattle shop remotely. We sat for a flight, which is very fairly priced, and turns to free if you buy bottles or join the wine club. 2 whites, a pink, and 2 reds. The whites and the pink stood out massively--lots of crisp flavor and character, very thoughtfully made. We added a white and pink sparkling wine as additional tastes--both were excellent. Prices here are very reasonable, and the inventory is deep enough to have a few fancier (i.e., also more-expensive) bottles on the shelves. They focus on organic and biodynamic wines, lots of very natural choices. Everything tends to be a bit less sweet and sticky than American wines, and the wineries they import tend to be the smaller ones, which just seems to put you even more firmly into Old-World territory that way. Languedoc-Roussillon evidently got a rep a couple generations ago for just cranking out tons of jug wine. I have a feeling that you could work through a lot of bottles from P&B and never run into much of anything like that. In fact, we joined the wine club and will confirm that in future visits. Can't wait to come back.

This tasting room is beautiful and the staff are great. The wines are pretty good but not exactly my fave, they specialize from a certain region (can't remember off the top of my head) but its still a good spot to check out if you're in the area for some wine and great conversation.

I couldn't believe this place was in south Seattle and right by my old work. I wish I knew of this place when I worked in Georgetown! I worked down there for over 12 years and I didn't know it existed. I would've been a regular. It's the cutest little place to try wine that is outside of the states. All their wines are from Languedoc-Roussillon a region of France and it makes it unique. Wines you can't find anywhere else. It's great and we tasted a few and they were delicious. They had a sparkling wine that I just loved and bought. If you want a great vibe and fun atmosphere go there. The service was exceptional and they were very knowledgeable. I didn't get a chance to meet the owners and to get more information on the finding of their business so I hope the next time I go they will be there. Great spot and I hope people flock here!

Went here for a Yelp Elite event and was so impressed with their wines!! We loved the sparkling brut so much we had to get a bottle to-go afterwards. We also tried a white & red wine as a part of the tasting, and loved the inside of the store - everything was so aesthetic and small intimate setting. Will definitely be back to try more of their wines!

Enjoyed an event at P&B this past week. The staff was so welcoming. Every question we had on the wines, AVAs, etc, was answered with such great detail! I'll definitely be going back!

I went to Princess and Bear as a plus one to a Yelp elite event! So glad that I got to check this place out, they source their wines to a small region in the south of France. I was able to sample a brut, a white, and brought home a red blend. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and I'm excited to go back and try more!
