Woodinville, WA — Mark Ryan Winery announced an exciting expansion in the heart of Woodinville’s wine country with a second tasting room that opened in late October 2023 in the new building at the site of the former Redhook Brewing headquarters (14200 NE 145th St., Suite D).
“Within the last few years, Mark Ryan Winery has grown to the 14th largest in Washington State with new wine drinkers discovering us every day,” said founder and owner Mark McNeilly. “Opening this tasting room gives us more space to offer our patrons and wine club members an unforgettable wine tasting experience, as well as support the Woodinville community. This growth represents our dedication to both quality and community. We like to say we are serious about winemaking, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously and we hope that mantra is carried through to the experience for our guests who come to visit.”
The new tasting room is open daily and showcases a full lineup of wines from Mark Ryan Winery, Pinot Noir from Megan Anne Cellars, and Flowerhead Rosé from Lu & Oly. The new location has more than double the capacity of the original tasting room, including two outdoor seating areas and three tasting bars. The larger space will provide for a variety of elevated experiences. A seamless reservation system through the winery’s website will ensure that guests’ visits are stress-free. Walk-ins are always welcome.
Patrons can enjoy tastings in comfortable indoor spaces or surrounded by the picturesque Washington scenery outdoors. The second-story deck provides heated and covered seating, including chairs, couches and tables for groups of up to six people. The interior includes three tasting bars, couches and chairs for comfortable seating, and larger tables with space for groups of up to 12 guests. Roll-up doors on the first floor open onto the patio, which provides additional seasonal seating.
The tasting room currently offers two curated tasting flights for guests to explore: The Classic Tasting ($35, refundable with a $65 bottle purchase) consisting of five current Mark Ryan releases. The Reserve Tasting ($45, refundable with a $75 bottle purchase) offers a taste of four premium red wines plus a rotating section from the library. Visitors may also savor wines by the glass.
