Great way to spend some time in town - Lovely little place, surprisingly enjoyable wines and prompt service. What more could you want I'm not sure but it was a bargain

Wine within - Enjoyed the perfect stop for a break while exploring Eastsound. Loved the story of the Orcas Project! We were pleased to try a limited availability red that was so good and felt fortunate enough to purchase. Recommended for anyone wanting a unique tasting experience.

Do the wine tasting! - Great fun doing the wine tasting. The Orcas Project is such a cool idea! You get access to a collection of wines by great local wine makers. The shop is really fun with some excellent curated international wines. We were looking for a Pino Noir (Burgandy) to cook a boeuf bourguignon and found a great French wine.

Slice of heaven just out of sight from the main roads in Eastsound - Don’t skip the cheeseboard. We did a five wine flight each and we had a lot of fun chatting with the gal running the shop on Sunday. The jam is really good, too. You can pick up several varieties from the island market a block away.

Socially Responsible Wine Making - The host was very knowledgeable of the wine and the makers. The cheese paring with the tasting was well coordinated.

The best wine tasting!! - We had a larger group and Cole was able to accommodate us for an after-hour tasting. It was the highlight of our weekend!! The wines were DELICIOUS, the charcuterie was also a surprise hit, and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. We also loved the casual patio vibe. Would absolutely recommend to anyone visiting Orcas Island
