Had the privilege of photographing a fine dining experience in the vineyard last summer. Live music, fine dining service and cuisine. Mary Ellen is an absolute gem who takes such joy in hosting guests on her property, and the rest of the staff are friendly, personable and fun. ** They host weddings here, and from a photographer's perspective: this venue would lend for BEAUTIFUL wedding photos in addition to hosting you and your guests to a fabulously memorable day! **

The beauty of this winery is truly captivating. Its picturesque seating area at the back overlooks a scenic expanse of vineyards and the surrounding landscape. The staff members are not only friendly but also attentive, making us feel welcome and well taken care of. We were particularly grateful for their accommodation when we arrived approximately an hour later than our reservation time.One standout wine that we all thoroughly enjoyed was the Merlot. It had a delightful flavor profile, filled with rich characteristics and a complex taste that delighted our palates. We were so impressed by the Merlot that we ended up purchasing four bottles to take home with us. For $35 per bottle, we found it to be reasonably priced for the quality and enjoyment it provided.I highly recommend visiting this winery to indulge in its offerings and soak in the serene surroundings.

Just attended my cousin's wedding here. Fantastic small venue! The Cab Sauv was being served, and it was very good. I look forward to coming back and doing a full tasting.

Relax at this serene vineyard and tasting room while enjoying some nice wine and snack selections. They have a nice setup here, certainly the best wine experience in southern Kitsap. Will come again!Olympic Otter

My wife and I attended one of the Friday night performances in the Loft. They're not too far off the freeway and easily accessible, easy and convenient to get to. We really loved the quaint/clean atmosphere of the facility. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. They had a great selection of wines and food/treats to choose from. We were unaware of this hidden gem and the weekly Friday night performances they host. We came to see a specific person perform that we knew, but we'll be coming back just the others now! I don't drink enough wine to feel like I can give sufficient feedback, but we got a rosé and I thought it tasted great!! Others seem to be commenting/enjoying their wine as well during the performance.

We truly love this place. We've been members since shortly after we moved to the area and found them. Not only are Mary Ellen, Cinny, and the rest of the staff truly a pleasure to talk with, but their wines are absolutely top notch!This is a great place set on nice acreage filled with grass, trees, and old growth vines. The winery is set in a charming building, where you will eventually end up sitting outside among the vineyard, or upstairs where there is plenty of space to talk, taste the wine, and nibble on the several offerings of cheese, crackers, salami, olives, and more. If you go outside on the deck, you can get a view of the water overlooking the vineyards. Fantastic place for a summer afternoon.Their wines are great and affordable. My wife was not a white wine person, however I truly believe that Mary Ellen's Viognier and Pinot Gris helped with her conversion. On the red side, the Merlot and Grenache are always superb, although you can't really go wrong with any of their selections.Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.

We out to see some friends perform some music at Olalla Winery and had very nice time. It was out second time out there and we like the indoor venue. Music was great, service excellent and the wine was good. Only complaint is the cost. With cover charge, one bottle, and one glass it came to $80.

We had an amazing time at Olalla with the owner, Mary Ellen. She gave us a mini-tour and then we all did the tasting which was a delightful and extensive run through the wines made at the vineyard. It took us a little work to find the entrance since the gate was closed but don't let that steer you away! Just drive down the narrow road, park and enter the tasting room via the door in the pictures. 100% recommend this to anyone looking for a awesome vineyard experience!

A must visit if you're in the Olalla area or driving through. Great wines, great staff and a great owner. Outdoor summer events are the best with amazing views.

My wife and I stopped here during a recent vacation in the area and spent an absolutely delightful couple of hours. Not only are the grounds beautiful, with many different and comfortable places to sit (we kept chasing the sun around the property), but the wines are also wonderful. And the hospitality here was unsurpassed! We were especially impressed by the warmth of Cinny (hope I spelled that right!), who came out from behind the bar in the tasting room to hug my wife when she found out that her mother had recently died, and by the helpfulness of owner Mary Ellen, who spent a lot of time online trying to find out where we could buy a hummingbird print that was displayed in the tasting room. Thanks to her efforts, we now have one hanging on the wall of our "bar" at home. It was a memorable day, and we will definitely return when we are back in Washington.

Small but lovely. Live music every Friday. Nice spot for a date or with a bunch of friends to sip on wine and chill.

My husband and I visited this winery in the summer and we had such a great experience. We came on a weekday which worked out in our favor, we pretty much had the entire vineyard to ourselves! The wines were delicious, service was great and our views were beautiful. Overall we had such a wonderful time and will be back soon!

We sat on the upper deck an enjoyed the view of the water.They are very family and pet friendlyThe hosts are very nice and graciously invited us to join them by their bonfire.

We are so fortunate to have such a wonderful vineyard & winery in our community! The grounds are beautiful and Mary Ellen and her team are passionate about producing high quality wines with something for everyone. Do yourself a favor, if you have never be, stop in and visit. Very relaxed and unpretentious atmosphere where everyone seems like old friends.

We are visiting from Texas and came here for a tasting. The lady behind the counter was very sweet and attentive. She gave us plenty of information about each wine we tasted. Since my mother in law and I aren't too big into reds after we tasted the whites, she got out their Blackberry wine. It was DELICIOUS! We really enjoyed our visit!

Loved it! Been there once before for an event, which was great, but they've since added a balcony that looks over the beautiful vineyard with a peek at Colvos Passage beyond. We were there in the afternoon and the ambience was very pleasant and relaxing.

I used a Groupon to bring my family members here and we had the greatest time! The vineyard was beautiful and I'm sure it's even better during the warmer months.Mary Ellen walked us through our tasting, which consisted of five wines. She was a fun host who explained the different types of wines they offered. Mary Ellen was also very happy to share the history of the vineyard and answered all our questions about the wine making process. After our tasting, we enjoyed a smoked salmon and cheese basket upstairs in their event room where they host live music every week. We each left with our own bottle of wine and are making plans to come again soon! Thank you for a great Sunday outing!

The raspberry wine is wonderful! We had rose that was smooth and just right on the sweetness scale, and the cab franc and lightly packed chardonnay were great too! The summer sausages are excellent.

My family and I have enjoyed some of the most fun nights at the winery, listening to great music and drinking AMAZING wine! We have gone to one of the Dinner In The Vineyard events and are very much looking forward to the next one. Mary Ellen and Stewart are so inviting and hospitable, they make the vineyard feel so welcoming and always leave us wanting to come back!

We came to an advertised Father's Day car show. At the start of the driveway two men greeted us to ask for $20 for parking. We were surprised by this and it had a feeling of being gouged. When we drove in we saw there car show consisted of 4 or 5 cars, with no room for more even if more had come. We'd driven a good distance, but left disgusted. Maybe it's a nice place if you are going there for the wine and the band, we were not.

Great seating options outside. Good breezes, sun shining on the deck, and families gathering for games on the lawn while sipping lovely varietals. What a relaxing experience.

This was my first time here and I had so much fun! I had a bottle of the sauvignon blanc and it was lovely. We shared the salmon, cheese and cracker basket. It was so much food, plenty for the table! Absolutely delicious and the live music was wonderful. I can’t wait to go back again
