Incredible experience here! Incredible prices on tastings and bottles. Super kid friendly, with lots of activities for them! The owners seem lovely, and there is definitely a tremendous amount of legacy in these wines. Their kids make the labels and it's clear talent runs in the family! We left with 4 bottles! read more

This is a nice, scenic spot to enjoy a wine tasing. Admittedly, I know nothing about wine, and don't drink much, so I can't say much about the taste. But it was a nice place to enjoy a sunny day. Also, the staff was super friendly and hospitable. read more

This winery is really wonderful! We were greeted warmly and waited on by Kasandra who was super friendly and helpful. She knew a lot about the wines and explained the winery process and personal tidbits about the owners and their experience. The wine was DELICIOUS. We ended up buying the Rosé and Syrah. The view and outdoor patio was beautiful. Will be back! read more

Great place for wine tasting and they're also paired with a restaurant that has good food. We enjoyed their wines and bought several bottles. The woman serving us was so friendly and helpful. Nice patio seating too. Highly recommend. read more

Pronounced "car-diss". (Gaelic) Beautiful winery with a copper top roof (you can even see it from the boat when on Lake Chelan.) Beautiful ambiance & views. The wine made from grapes grown in Rhone, France. Tasting = 4, 1 white, 3 red. Definitely recommend the Counoise! Delicious! I really prefer this type of wine as its not too dry. Light, fragrant & flavorful. read more

After we were greeted by the wine dogs, we entered into this modern, open space and were lead outside to sit at tables out in the sun. A few tastes of reds that I still can't pronounce tickled our fancy. I thought enough to join up and bring some home. Staff was patient explaining the all that. I think this was my favorite stop in Chelan. read more

Bring your own cheese board!!! A really beautiful winery in a beautiful setting in the mountains. Definitely would like to shout out our amazing Wine waiter-Epi. He was so sweet and knowledgeable. Loved getting to know a little about him and the areA. They do actually have small cheeseboards for purchase but you can bring small snacks in as well. A modern but cozy space with outstanding wines. They have card/table games all around, so it's an added touch of activity while you sip sip away your worries! read more

Lovely winery to start our weekend in Chelan. We enjoyed the flight option, and found the various blends both tasty and different enough we could pick out the subtle differences in the wine. My boyfriend's favorite was the Trí and my favorite was the Consonance. Would recommend for anyone wanting to explore the Washington wine scene. Make sure to get reservations so you can enjoy one of the seating bubbles overlooking the lake! read more

Really great wines, especially their red wines with a gorgeous tasting room to match. Top it off with friendly staff who know their stuff and this has become one of our very favorite wineries in town! read more

Beautiful place, great selection of wine, and great service! Went here for a tasting with a group of 8 during a bachelorette trip and they were amazing! read more

Cairdeas Winery is a great spot! The server was really warm, welcoming, and did a great job explaining the different wines and history of the place. The wine itself also tasted great and paired fantastically with the charcuterie boards on offer. Their Grenache dominant wines were especially good. There's really good indoor and outdoor seating with a great view and location next to a few other wineries. Overall great place with tasty wine and a comfortable vibe. read more

Loved the atmosphere and the wine was great! The only thing I found strange was while getting the wine flight the glass was not switched out in between tasting the wines. The only reason for the 4 star. I've been to many wineries and I feel it's almost a must to get a new glass or at least a rinsed glass between wines to get the true flavor. The service was great and the view was lovely! read more

We sat in an outside patio bubble for a tasting and it was great! Epi did an amazing job of describing the wines and then we added the chocolate pairing, just do it! Plus, we could bring our corgis to sit with us. Beautiful view of lake Chelan and the wine is delicious! read more

First, I have to say we have been coming to Cairdeas for years as one of our go-to wineries in the lake Chelan area. We love the Nellie Mae, and this year I especially enjoy the Tri and concrete Syrah. But, can we also talk about this serious glow-up their tasting room just had?! It is lodge style and oh so cozy. The upstairs is for club members only, which honestly is only a 6-bottle commitment, so why not?! Their view from their patio is gorgeous and is just as enjoyable in winter as it is summer. So happy for this small business and to see their project turn out so beautifully! read more

Wonderful wines. We walked away with several bottles. Epie (Eppy) was excellent - he guided us through the tastings and provided us with one of the best customer service experiences we had during our wine tasting weekend. The view is amazing and the establishment is comfortable and relaxing. I would highly recommend the wines and the staff. read more

View is probably the only thing worth coming here for. I guess I went with high expectation thinking it's next to Succession Winery so service, ambiance and wine would be great. We were a large group and had called in and made reservations outside before hand which worked out perfectly. These winery is two stories. Decent size. They were kinda busy but wasn't as busy as other wineries we had been to earlier. Service was slow so we opted for bottles vs tasting. We got to sample two wines before committing to a bottle. Between samples to bottles there was a wait as it appeared only one person was working. Wine was ok. We had a bottle of 2022 Grenache which was just ok. Our hostess was rushing so she opened two bottles for us so we were kinda stuck with it. It was very basic. The other wines we tasted were also basic. Something about the ambiance at this place was cold. It wasn't fun tasting here. We consumed our bottles and left within an hour. Our hostess also asked where we were headed to and we mentioned next door to Succession and she said make sure to take your car with you and not just walk over and she left. Our experience here felt very abrupt. Maybe they were short handed etc but I don't plan on returning to this winery anytime soon. read more

Out of the 3 wineries we visited today, Cairdeas was our favorite! The service and ambiance was very down to earth, our server was extremely friendly, and best of all, the wines were delicious. We made a reservation online to sit outside, but there were still plenty of tables available since it's March, and the transparent canopy walls allowed us to enjoy the view but stay cozy with the heaters. The winery is about 13 years old, Cairdeas is gaelic for friendship, goodwill, and alliance. The $15 tasting we shared included a syrah, counoise, caislean an papa, consonance, and port-style petite sirah since they were out of whites. While the syrah was my favorite, I was extremely surprised by the dessert wine since it only had 3% sugar and the syrupy, chocolate-y finish was tasty without being overwhelmingly sweet. Bottles ranged from mid $40-$75, with the tasting fee waived with a 2 bottle purchased. 5% off 6 bottles and 10% off 12+ bottles, but they also ship for free if you purchase 6+ bottles! There's also snacks and merchandise for purchase, either as packs or ala carte, so we got some crackers and salame. Fun, no-frills spot, definitely recommend! read more

Our favorite wine of our visit. Staff is friendly, efficient and informative. We purchased a few bottles to bring home!

The winery tasting room is easily accessible from the key routes and they allow pets outside. They do have club membership seating upstairs. We booked as a group and they seated us at two outside tables. So we started pulling a table the three feet so we could continue to be a group. One of the employees was extremely rude and clearly delivered the message she didn't want us to be seated together. I'm ok with them no wanting the tables to be moved but how the message was delivered was just inappropriately done. Our server was good and we looked after her appropriately. The wines are done in the Rhône style - based on their prices, I'd just buy the real thing from Europe. read more

Spectacular tasting room with Spectacular wines. These are definately the best and most interesting I've tried in my time in Chelan and the first that have been good enough to make me want to consider joining their wine club and get stuff shipped home to Seattle. My only hesitation is I'm already out of room to store all the wine I already have read more

Rhône valley style wines were pretty successful. I've come here a number of times over the last few years and rarely encounter a wine i didn't enjoy. The tasting room is just big enough and the service is always friendly and helpful. The wines are just good. well executed and aren't some barely drinkable liquid. It's nice to find somewhere that has a perspective and the capability to execute well. Check them out!! read more

We did a tasting here and enjoyed it, largely thanks to our somm, who knew her stuff and was fun. I grilled her with a lot of questions, and she consistently had good answers. The view is also quite nice, too. Cairdeas has a common Chelan story, which is just that the wine isn't nearly as good as what you find in Walla Walla or Red Mountain. All you can do is accept that and enjoy. Here, the wine is good but just not worth the price. I'd pay for $25-30 these wines, but for $45+, no way. So, enjoy your tasting and the good view and then point your car to Walla Walla for wine that is truly worth your money. read more

Great experience. Lovely view from outside patio where we enjoyed a flight and lots of great information shared by the very friendly server (proprietor?). We bought two bottles to bring home and shared with some friends who are far more knowledgeable wine connoisseurs than we are. They loved the wines. We would love to return to this place someday. read more

Great red wines. I love the concrete Malbec and Caislean du Papa. The upstairs of the barn is a great space for wine club members, and the leather modern furniture adds a class and sophistication not seen at many other places. read more

Rhone inspired winery has some very unique wines for the region. The grapes the grow and source are rare if not missing from other Washington wines. $10 tasting is good value for the quality of wines. They have case specials that are well worth it as you might not find a similar bottle outside the tasting room. read more

Our last stop after a long day of wine tasting, we thought maybe our taste buds would be too fatigued by the day's work. They were instead revived upon encountering Cairdeas' particularly amazing Rhone-style wines. All hits. We drank every last drop poured, and both us and our friends signed up as club members before leaving. I only wish we lived closer by so we could come here all the time. We'll definitely make a point of returning to learn more about their operation and take in the lovely view on their patio with some of their delicious wine. Bonus points for the petanque court which we had so much fun learning to play. read more

Terrific wine, especially the whites. In Chelan, expectations are moderate given how great the Walla Walla wines are. But every pour was strong, with two being stellar. Tasting patio was comfy, amazing views, and tasty charcuterie plate. Terrific service on a busy Memorial Day. read more

My fav stop in Manson. Or Chelan for that matter. Such good and consistent wine. Love their outdoor space. Can't wait for the new barn to open. Lots of good stuff coming out of here, you will not be disappointed! read more

Charlie and Lacey, you both are the best! I just opened my fall allocation and it's so lovely! The packaging is impeccable and I especially love the magnet you included, very classy! I wish I was closer so I could come visit in person more often but I wanted to say thank you for the fall wines and your attention to details, even small ones like shipping boxes! read more

We loved this winery. The tasting room was very well appointed and contemporary. The service was great, very friendly staff who was knowledgeable about the wines they were serving. The best part of all was the VIEW! Definitely would go back and we did buy several bottles. read more

Absolutely amazing in every aspect. The Owners, staff and resident puppies are all incredibly friendly. There is no pretentiousness about this winery. Dog friendly, kid friendly and parent perfect! Joined the wine club and will be make this place a frequent visit on our trips to the area. The wine is exceptional!! During our current pandemic, the staff all had masks and were following state laws with distancing, capacity and cleanliness. Each table had its own sanitizer and the staff kept masks on when talking to you. We felt safe and had a wonderful time. Would absolutely recommend making reservations. They make the process super easy with either call in or online reservations. read more

Charlie knows how to make wine, and the fact that he focuses on Rhone varietals scores big in my book. Quaint tasting room where focus is on the wine. Tasted the White Rhone Blend, rosé, and then 4 reds. Prob my favorite red was the C2- equal parts blend of Cab Sauv and Carmenere. Charlie had double decanted it, and it was tasting amazing! I took home two of those, two Tri and two of the Bordeaux blend, Consonance. I love visiting family wineries and this one boasts family, especially since the tasting room is in the back of the house! Great wines, great view, great people. You would be sad to miss this one! read more

My family and I really enjoyed the atmosphere and wine here! We had been wanting to try Cairdeas for a year or two after hearing good things about it. Our favorite was the 2015 Consonance. The staff was friendly and there was a lot of great seating with beautiful views of the lake and vineyards. Can't wait to come back with friends! read more

Drove up to this winery and it said reservations only, gave her a call since we saw her standing in there alone and she went and let us, in that was the best thing about the visit. The pours were less than marginal yes we always share a pour so we can then buy wine by the glass or the bottle. It was the smallestpour that we've ever seen and we've been winetasting for quite a while. She was so busy on the phone so it took quite a while to get the four wine tasting. We would have left after two but couldn't figure out how much money to leave her. Long story short we went up the road to Bensons and it's the opposite most wonderful experience skip this place and go to Bensons. read more

Woohoo! this place is great and the owners are super nice. This place was recommended to us from the previous place we were at and we weren't disappointed. Again, must be on a white wine kick (drinking too many reds this winter) and fell in love with the Northern Lights and Nellie Mae. They were doing a special that a case was 50% off and asked if I could do 50/50 of both and they said yes! YAY!!! which is also bad because it means I have more wine than I needed but each bottles is $25 and for the case its $150 so it was a great deal. Both wines are a white blend (one 70% Viognier & 30% Roussanne and another 50% Marsanne & 50% Roussanne) The wife and husband duo opened this winery and was very proud of their product. We got to try a lot of different things that wasn't on the list and I probably would of bought more but I was already getting 12 bottles... read more

Delicious wines! Enjoyed the reds more than the whites, though. Nice atmosphere. Lots of outside seating (with umbrellas) so you can enjoy some wine with a view. Tasting fee waived with bottle purchase. read more
