J. Bookwalter Tasting Studio Woodinville

Ok this is strictly off service and feeling like it was way too expensive. Came here with 5 friends. The wine was actually good, not great but good. So there were two options for flights a $30 flight and a $35 flight. The $35 flight was accompanied by chocolates. With a $40 wine purchase your tasting was free. Once we ordered our $35 wine with chocolate flight and had our first pour our, host mentions that if we purchased a bottle of wine to waive the tasting, the chocolates would have to be charged separately because they technically weren’t included in waiving the tasting fee. At that point it was kind of too late to back out. We wish they would have informed us ahead of time especially since we had been wine tasting all day and had spent some cash. So all of just hoped the chocolates were reasonable in price. The chocolates were tasty but honestly we all dropped $70 to a $100 for this tasting because of being nickel and dimmed. Probably won’t be back unfortunately. Way too expensive for a chocolate and wine tasting

Went for a nice evening out but experienced super rude and non-helpful wait staff. Ruined my night. Won't be back.

Some of the best red wine that I have had in my entire life

Came up to finally experience this beautiful location, so happy I did. Jessica did such a great job hosting us and was extremely knowledgeable. Chocolate+ tasting pairing was FANTASTIC. Highly recommend!

We recently hosted a fundraising event at J. Bookwalter and had an incredible experience from start to finish. John, the manager, was fantastic in the lead-up — always quick to answer our questions and even on hand the night of the event to help with small tweaks that kept everything running smoothly. Jessica and her fellow wine steward were amazing during the event itself, handling all the inevitable chaos with calm professionalism and even helping with on-the-spot decision making.

The space was beautiful, the team was outstanding, and they made hosting an event there truly seamless. We can’t recommend J. Bookwalter enough for anyone looking to rent a venue for a special event.

Hands-down our favorite! The atmosphere is chill and welcoming, perfect for unwinding with friends. The wines are bold and flavorful, and we loved the storytelling behind each bottle. Don’t miss their food menu too — it pairs beautifully!

I like that dogs are allowed inside and outside. Wines werent my personal favorite

Lovely wine selection, small bites and welcoming patio.

One of the best wines of Washington. Chapter 12, Volume 11, are premium red 🍷. Excellent.

Not only is the wine absolutely delicious, we had the best wine server, Jessica. We’re excited to join the wine club! Thank you Jessica for taking such good care of us!

My husband and I had a lovely wine tasting experience with Jessica, our wine host. We have loved Bookwalter wines for over 20 years and were very happy to visit the Woodinville studio. It did not disappoint... we sat in the sunshine with lovely music and a great charcuterie platter and enjoyed a beautiful tasting of great wines. Jessica was very helpful and gave us great information. We will definitely be back. Thank you!!

I had a shockingly poor experience at J. Brookwalter. After a five-minute wait to be acknowledged, I was curtly informed by a staff member with purple hair that they stop serving tastings 35 minutes before closing—despite my arrival 28 minutes before closing and being willing to expedite my visit. I even explained my long journey and the luggage I carried, but received zero empathy or flexibility. This kind of customer service, especially in front of other patrons, is unacceptable. A little kindness could have gone a long way. Sadly, I won't be returning.

The legacy wines.... omg

Great wine & always fantastic service.

The book character themed names of the wines add an interesting touch to the experience. Nice ambience.Be sure to check out the patio in the summer.
