The Queen Anne Tasting Room, located on Queen Anne
Avenue in Seattle, offers daily happy hour specials as well as
small bites: sandwiches, tapas, charcuterie boards, and other
small plates created to complement the wines. While less
of a tasting room experience and more like a small café, the
Queen Anne Tasting Room offers wine flights, so visitors can
experience multiple wines in one sitting.
Wine Club members enjoy a 50 percent discount for their
initial shipment. After that, distributions occur three times a
year, and members can choose any wines they'd like, or simply
receive new releases by default. With multiple tiers available,
10 to 20 percent off all purchases, and a complimentary
tasting for members and their guests, membership is—like
everything else at Robert Ramsay Cellars—focused on giving
wine aficionados an amazing experience.
