Milbrandt Vineyards

Such a great time and magnificent wine. So good I had to get a bottle or several to go. Their staff is friendly with great conversation and personality. Yes they even have a light food selection to go with your wine. I'd surely go back. How can you not love the area. Parking, not so much.

I am very surprised that Milbrandt only has 3 stars on Yelp so Far. The tasting room is new, clean and cozy, although we arrived on a super busy day, we were served promptly. They are one of the biggest grape growers in Easter Washington, and this is one of their labels of wines. We had four tastings with our wine passport here. We were impressed with most of them. Personally I don't care for Syrahs, so besides the Syrah, the pinots Gris, 2012 Merlot, Cab Sauv, were all pretty good, especially the Merlot. We also feel the pricing is reasonable, in Washington state, wineries usually pour newer wines, it is not often to see a great 2012 Merlot in tasting, and the price is under 40 dollars. We marked Milbrandt is one of the better wineries in the area.

I usually stop by here if I've been to Ryan Patrick next door or if they're doing a special vendor event. I think they have two regular tasting menus between their multiple tiers of wines, a WWC Passport menu, and bonus wines for their club members. They also have a small food/snack menu from Heritage. Since I'm usually here by myself, I've always found space at the bar, but it's true that this location doesn't have a lot of seating. As for the wines, I like some more than others, but I've never had a bad wine here.

Came in for a tasting and it was amazing! Wines were absolutely delicious and service was on point. I wish the tasting menus included the tasting notes for the wines but that would be my only suggestion.

What a beautiful tasting room! I loved the minimalistic decor, Moroccan chandeliers and rustic-woodsy touches. Brian took care of us and had exceptional customer service in every way. Informative, friendly, accommodating, generous and he made the experience fun! These two things right off the bat made me want to come back. And THE WINE - so delicious! I definitely recommend going in for a tasting, if you love reds you'll love the '18 Syrah. If you love whites you'll love the '19 Estates Viognier and '19 Estates Chardonnay. My absolute favorite of the day was the '20 Rosé. There's something for all wine lovers here. Which is why I became a Wine Club member for the first time ever! Thanks Brian + Milbrandt Vineyards!

I've always had great experiences at Milbrandt (I've been to this Woodinville and the Leavenworth locations)! I'm a member of the Wine Club they offer to UW Bothell alumni (they're the only ones I know of who offer a discounted wine club for Bothell alumni), and I've had so much fun at events and tastings attached to my membership. As with a large number of the reviews I see, I'm a BIG fan of their rose. Although I can buy by the bottle, it's so reasonably priced that I've been known to do a call out to other friends who love the rose and purchase a case for us all. I also love their 2017 Merlot and every Syrah I've tasted.To address something I have a little insight about: I see a few reviews about poor service offered by an older woman at the tasting room in the past. I know the experience and talked to the tasting room manager about it - she both apologized in-person and assured me that the woman people are referring to is no longer an ambassador in their tasting rooms.

The hours said closes at 6pm. We showed up at 5:45pm, and the host/server asked us if we had a reservation. Which we implied no, then she preceded to tell us that they stop sitting and serving at 5:30pm. The room was mostly full and her attitude was less undeserving. After walking away we kinda laughed it off because the hours should state 5:30pm. Plus why even ask us for a reservation if you don't seat anybody after 5:30pm. Most of the table were still within there first tasting, so it wasn't like we were trying to stay all night and keep her there. It was Friday night and the whole area was busy. Definitely 1 star for the way we were treated. Plus this placed is connected to the Ryan Patrick winery as well, which means they both need to have someone with a little more couth when talking to potential members.

My favorite books have great writing, good characters and a page turning plot. I like some books that don't have all three but I never love them. Milbrandt is like a favorite book! It's got all the things that make it great - delicious wine (every single one!), fun and passionate people who work there (shout out to Alice who's served us every time), and a fun location! We joined the wine club our first visit and have been happily going back ever since.

Milbrandt winery club has been a great experience for our family! Their staff is incredible and their wine is exceptional. My personal favorite wine is the Rose and the Clifton Hills Cabernet. I highly recommend this wine club! Christine

My previous review from 2019 was 5 stars but it's now changing to 2.As a long-time patron of the wine club, it's with a heavy heart that I share my recent experiences which have led me to reconsider my membership and leave the wine club all together. The once-familiar faces of the staff, who had become like family, have been replaced by a revolving door of new hires, leaving me feeling disconnected and nostalgic for the club's former sense of community.The addition of Ryan Patrick wines to the Milbrandt tasting lineup was an anticipated change, but the inclusion of the 'Simply' and 'Lulu' wines has been, frankly, a letdown. These wines, in my opinion, lack the sophistication and quality I've come to expect, reminiscent of the bargain bottles one might find at a gas station.Expressing my concerns to the staff has only added to my frustration, as I feel my voice as a member of a higher-tier wine club is not being heard or valued. The decline in wine quality over the years is palpable; what were once exceptional vintages now seem mediocre at best.While the ambiance remains pleasant and the outdoor seating is enjoyable, these factors alone are not enough to compensate for the shortcomings in service and product quality. Given the competitive landscape of local wineries, I can no longer, in good conscience, recommend this winery to friends and family.It's a sad realization that, much like the ephemeral nature of a good vintage, not all good things are meant to last.
