Signature Wines and Wineries of Washington
area of Seattle. When you step foot in either tasting room, you
immediately realize that Sleight of Hand Cellars is no ordinary
winery. With over 2,000 albums from various musical genres
and turntables spinning vinyl in both tasting rooms—and the
Wine Club Lounge at the Walla Walla property—Sleight of Hand
excels at providing a unique experience in as many ways as
possible. Music inspires each Sleight of Hand wine—music is
always playing in the production facility—and the winemaking
team feels there is magic in every bottle they produce. The Wine
Illusionist Society, Sleight of Hand's exclusive wine club, enjoys
the winery's collaboration with Sub Pop Records in Seattle.
Every shipment of wine also includes a free digital download of
some of the best songs from Sub Pop's current musicians.
Each wine features a magically inspired name and a label
inspired by vintage magic posters. From the Levitation Syrah,

of blackberry, blueberry compote, pepper, and wild herb-styled
