Friendly staff, cool venue and good wine. A friend and I checked out this winery on a recent trip to Woodinville. Neither of us was familiar with Mark Ryan wines, so the gentleman working there gave us some good information about the wines and suggested different tastings for the two of us, based on our pallettes. We both enjoyed our wines, some better than others, and found them to be on the dry side. It was a bit odd that they gave us such large glasses for small tastes, but we enjoyed the tasting room decor and it's cool vibe. I'd put this on your list of wineries to visit when you're in Woodinville.

A 3.5 stars would be appropriate rating so I'm being nice. The building is beautiful, lots of parking and dog friendly. The wine is good, everyone has their own preferences. The service is average, and while You have some very nice and personable servers and others not so much. I also think I they were short staffed. Woodinville has way too many options so I probably won't be back for a while.

The MR is winery is absolutely beautiful and bursting at the seams with people, probably because their new building is so much better than their old building, and they made a giant investment in a beautiful patio with fireside seating. They also offered late hours which helps accommodate so many people that want to keep drinking wine after 4 PM. We love Mark Ryan, especially in Walla Walla, where we get phenomenal customer service and a memory making experience. I have to say this Woodenville staff was very disappointing. They were unfriendly, unwelcoming, and acted like I should know exactly what their rules are about "no longer serving tastings after 5 PM (insert eye roll here!" Every winery is different, and so no I did not know that it was glass pours only, and I was made to feel shamed that I would ask such a question about tastings. The staff was dismissive and seemed very put out. We bought a bottle, why are you exasperated Mr? We belong to almost 10 wine clubs, locally, and Mark Ryan is not one of them. I told my husband after this experience, of course we can buy their wine on occasion, but I don't wanna go back. There are so many places in Woodinville that treat you so lovely, why do we want to go back for the customer service abuse here? We are not snobs. Why is your staff acting snobby? It's so unnecessary. Maybe the staff is overwhelmed or having a bad day, but no wine is delicious enough to deal with a pretentious attitude. It's too bad because they do have one of the best patios, and best hours and really good wine. My husband wants to go back... But I'm going to encourage a new place.

I went to the Mark Ryan Winery a week or two ago. This Winery has been on my list for a while, and I felt really happy with my experience here. I was welcomed by a very bubbly lady. I initially asked her if I could taste some of the Board Track Racer wines, but she explained to me that this location of the Winery doesn't really specialize in those, so they didn't have any of those bottles open for the tastings that day. I explained to her that I was going to a Dinner Party and that my friend Sharon (who was hosting the Dinner Party) didn't yet know what the menu for the dinner party was going to be, so I was unable to ask for a specific food pairing for my wine. Sharon and I have switched off hosting small Dinner Parties every month for the year of 2024, and it's working well for us thus far. I hosted the first Dinner Party in January, and she brought wine. I found out that she is a member of a Wine Club, so I really wanted to bring tasty bottles of wine when she is hosting. The bubbly lady said that some of Mark Ryan's wines are made so that they do not have to be paired with a specific food or foods, so I thought that was nice. After I explained the situation to the lady (I didn't get her name), she immediately recommended the "Dissident" Cabernet Sauvignon. At 45 dollars it was slightly higher than I expected to spend, but once I tasted it I was sold! Sharon loved the Dissident wine. She refilled her wine glass 3 times and she finished off the bottle! I was so happy to see that, and I felt very proud to bring the Dissident wine to her dinner party. I had just one glass of wine with dinner. Usually I actually drink a glass of wine with my dinner about every 3 months or so! I like a nice glass of wine, it is just something that I typically indulge in somewhat rarely. I haven't yet encountered a wine that has motivated me to have a second glass of it in a single dinner. But if I ever do, I will probably be yelping about it! However, in 2024 I have been having one glass of wine per month, due to the Dinner Parties. This is actually way more wine than I usually drink! So, I am seeing this as a great opportunity to explore more of what Woodinville Wine Country has to offer. This Winery's ambiance was my vibe. High wood ceilings, gleaming grays, blacks, and whites, and framed photos of bands and concerts. I felt very comfortable and happy there. This visit was more of a check off on my to do list, as I was heading out to play tennis with a companion immediately after my visit, so I kept this visit pretty brief. However, this Winery is somewhere that I personally would feel very comfortable hanging out for a while and enjoying a more comprehensive tasting, which I may do at some point down the road. There are so many great wineries in the Woodinville area, and I'm happy that I tried this one. 5 stars for sure.

We walked in without a reservation. We were seated right away and then someone came over to ask if we had questions. She was able to help us decide what glass if wine would be best for all of us. They do have mostly bold reds, but she was able to make the best recommendations. I had the 2019 dead horse. Loved it. If you like dry reds, grab this next time you're there. It is spacious inside, so you're not crowded in with others. Parking is available on site, but shared with other businesses.

We're here!

With each winery we toured in the Seattle area, there was a different vibe! This one is a bit more laid back in the PNW relaxed way! Servers graciously attend to tables with a smile. The wines are very good and we enjoyed a Pinot! I would definitely recommend a visit if you enjoy wine!

Made reservations in advance by prepayment. Tasting fee can be applied towards $50 purchase. You could buy one bottle for $50 or you could buy two for $25 each and still get your tasting fee waived. The flight was presented in little carafes and we self poured the wine into our glasses. They have some little bites you can order too. IMO, the pours are too little. Could be a bit more generous! My favorite is the Dead Horse , 92% Cab Sauvignon. Oh, the rock and roll music art and the motorcycles give it a very chic ambiance. Nice place to taste some wine, buy the Dead Horse, get the tasting waived and hangout rest of the day sipping and chatting.

Loved our experience here! There are plenty of tasting rooms down this strip, but this winery was recommend to us by a friend. We (group of 4) risked walking in on a Sunday with no reservations and were able to get seated for a tasting. The waitress was so knowledgeable and friendly, she even gave our designated driver a complimentary, non-alcoholic drink. I had such a lovely time here, I definitely plan to return!

5 good pours, this is for 2 people.  We already drank the 1st pour.

A great venue/winery/space/area/garden all in one! This…read moreplace is arguably the top of must-go-to places in Woodinville. It's a winery with vast outdoor gardens, lawns, and places to enjoy the spring and summer weather. Inside is a massive area with plenty of tables to listen to live music usually every weekend that goes throughout the fall and winter. They have some amazing wine offerings. Plenty of options on the cellar wall or chilled in the fridge. Our personal favorite is the White Cabernet Sauvignon. Service is quick and efficient, though we often just skip the bar - grab a bottle and checkout at the main register area where you will also get glasses. Take the bottle outside or grab a table, or if the venue open for one of the summer concerts, definitely worth going inside the main winery area instead of the vendors outside with limited options. Summer concert series is hit and miss. Can bring some great options and acoustics are great! However, sometimes the seats are absurdly high priced - and the crowd around you can be a mixed bag that seemingly just buys the season pass for all the concerts instead of going for a specific event. Overall - great place to go, if you can catch a concert, within your budget, definitely go! One of the better outdoor venues in Western WA.

We stopped in for glasses of wine since we didn't want to splurge on a full tasting, and I appreciated that this was an option. We didn't have a reservation and arrived on a quiet, rainy Sunday, though I can imagine this place filling up quickly on sunny days or holidays. Was it more expensive than expected? Yes -- glasses ran between $16-$18. They are pouring their run of the mill table wines here. They also had food menus on the tables, which you order from the bar and have brought out to you. Overall, a lovely place to visit and experience, especially if you're already a fan of the brand.

Located in Woodinville's newish trendy neighborhood, Woodin Creek Village, Bayernmoor is nestled among several tasting rooms so I had never noticed them before. My bad! First, I really enjoyed the ambiance here. It was modern elegance, with our reserved seating area featuring comfy seating on low chairs and couches. It was hard to pick from among their many wine tasting options - including several including accompanying bites. Nom nom! I settled on a tasting flight of whites, and my work colleague ordered us some tasty nibbles from their extensive appy menu. We especially enjoyed their upscale cheese & charcuterie board, their burrata with grilled bread, and an order of charred root vegetables with a delightful harissa sauce. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. The wines, of course, were delish. And our server was top notch - always there with the next tasting and to answer our questions about what to order. I'll definitely be back!
