State 42 Wines ended up being one of my favorite stops in Poulsbo. I ordered a glass of Vignot and…read morethought it was a great pour for the price. The woman working was incredibly kind and welcoming, the kind of person who makes you want to stay and hang out a little longer. Since they were closing for a few days, she even let me take the rest of the bottle home, which really stood out to me. The space itself is cozy inside with a relaxed vibe, and outside seating is perfect for enjoying the town center. Such a great spot to unwind if you're in Poulsbo.

Stopped into State 42 to have a flight with my mum and girlfriend on a recent day trip to Poulsbo…read more The place was packed so we were anticipating some good wine. We ordered a white flight and a red flight. These wines, all eight, missed the mark for me by a mile and change--Odd palettes with zero complexity. A couple whites had no discernable flavor and the reds were flat. I'm by no means a wine snob, not even close, but even I can tell when artistry is present in a bottle. State 42 wines are just not for me, so take my words with as big of a grain of salt as you like. I know these little wineries work very hard and I've yet to have a "bad" experience at any winery, including this one, despite the noise level. Their wine simply didn't win me over and that's ok.

The host was very friendly and knowledgeable. We weren't a fan of the mainly white option, and the preselected tasting menu. We sat outside near a heater, luckily if not I would have been cold, on this rainy day. Also they only waive tasting fee with 3 bottles of wine.

Glad we got to visit Bainbridge while out in Seattle :) We settled in for a wine tasting-- only around $20/person for 4 wines. I also opted for cheese/crackers ($10~). The setup was very DIY-- a quad of carafes to self-serve along with a box of crackers and a pack of goat cheese LOL. Plates, napkins, water, and silverware were available near the front patio. Staff were sweet and accommodating. Our table was flanked by heaters, keeping the cold at bay. Felt so cozy sipping with friends under their pavilion, taking in the brisk autumn air. Their whites were so delicious & sweet! I'm not a dry/buttery wine type of gal-- I like it as juice-adjacent as possible. These were up my alley for sure. LOVE that the grapes are all grown locally. While far from downtown, the vineyard is easy to access with their local bus system, Pingo.

Multiple seating options, indoor and outdoor though the inside seating was indoor/outdoor. It was a garage door that was open which during the summertime I think is fantastic, but we had coats so it worked out fine. Great decor and a really cute story on how they got started. I just got a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon and my girlfriends all did the tasting. All of us were happy and we will definitely be back. The food options were sparse and prepackaged. they had plenty of parking. I look forward to coming back here in warmer weather. Is it worth the drive?...yes

We saw this place on yelp and thought it would be a great spot to find locally brewed spirits. When we entered we were greeted by Rob and Dylan. They were super friendly and Dylan did a great job at explaining the different spirits and what they have to offer. We decided to each do the 4 glass tasting for $15 and with 8 tastings total we got to taste most of what they had to offer. My boyfriend loved everything he tasted! I'm not really a big fan of darker liquors but I really loved the Harvest Gin and Eagle Harbor Brandy, I had to bring a bottle of each home to share. We drove to Bainbridge so it was super easy to get there and there was lots of parking available. Overall an amazing experience with great conversation and definitely will be visiting again.

Getting there, the drive was really simple and the surroundings beautiful. The distillery itself is tucked away in the back near some other garages. There is parking near there but it is limited. We chose to sit outside because it was such a beautiful day. The service there was great because the individual behind the bar was very attentive, asked us questions about what we liked, and gave recommendations based on our answers. We wanted to start off with the flight, which was a great option because it helped us really decide on the drinks we wanted to try out that were recommended to us. In the end we got two drinks each and walked away with a bottle of brandy and gin. Safe to say that we enjoyed what we tasted. Highly recommend if you are in the area and want a nice chill experience.

Our pup received the warmest welcome of all! She had dog treats dipped in peanut butter to offer, and my pup LOVED it! Now the wine. I was actually quite impressed with the quality of the wine! Hubby and I are VERY into wine and we both thoroughly enjoyed our tastings. Toni even convinced me to try their Chardonnay, even though I typically don't like Chardonnay. Great recommendation! It was fruit forward and not heavily oaked. I even ended up buying a bottle. We bought several wines that day, including their sparkling. So good! We enjoyed ourselves so much on Saturday, that we came back on Sunday! Toni remembered our names, and our pup's name too! I have to say, Toni is one of the most fun and personable hosts we've met at a wine tasting room. We've visited wineries all across the west coast and abroad, and many tasting room employees will just pour you a small taste, give you their short spiel about the wine, and move on. But Toni gave us an amazing and personalized experience. There were several groups tasting on Saturday and you could tell how Toni brought energy to the vibe and we were all having a great time. She is a GEM and deserves some major recognition. We will absolutely return to Stottle next time we're in the area!
