He is extremely knowledgeable, and puts time and effort into meeting and understanding his customers! We left with 8 different bottles, and the wine variety was appreciated across my group. We will definitely be back, and hope to work with Eric again in the future! We learned lots, drank fantastic wine, and enjoyed beautiful scenery at Long Shadows!

I arrived slightly early in the day when the place was still empty -- expected for a weekday -- and was warmly greeted by him. He asked where we'd like to sit and promptly began the tasting. It was an absolute delight. In the short time I spent there, I learned more about wine than I have in my entire life. Eric was incredibly knowledgeable and thoughtful in how he explained everything -- it all just clicked. My husband did a white flight, and I did a red, and together we were able to sample a generous range from their collection. We left with a bottle of Poet's Leap, which we're excited to open soon. The vineyard itself is beautifully set, and while it's a bit of a drive, it's more than worth it. The interiors feature stunning glasswork and have a chic, modern feel -- including the facilities . Long Shadows is now firmly on my list of must-visits and will be at the top of my recommendations for anyone heading to Walla Walla.

We got the red flight and the nonalcoholic flight. We also tried the NA bubbles and rose. Very big selection of NA wines so that was cool for the ones who didn't drink alcohol. The food was yummy.

Paul immediately started working to find an alternative flight which ended up saving us 18 hrs of travel (including 1 additional stop and 2 hotel night stays).

Thank you for everything and we look forward to having your help on our next trip!

The service was impeccable and the taco truck they have there was a wonderful addition and had amazing tacos. Carnitas FTW. I also really liked both their white and red wines. On top of all that there was a band playing relaxing music and it just made for a wonderful and relaxing atmosphere. Will be back.

They offer a full White flight which most Walla Walla vineyards Do Not. They also offer Beer for the non-Wine people. It was a fun spot and somewhat low-key in the midst of the previous weekend being spring release and the following weekend being Mother's Day. We were happy to chill with lots of space. None of the wines were showstoppers for me, but they were all good. And we were happy to have enjoyed a beautiful afternoon there.

Manuel was wonderful! He came up with amazing suggestions and we loved all three of the wineries we…read morevisited. It was so nice not to have to worry about scheduling and he kept up on time too. The car was very clean and also nice and cool. Who knew the weather could be so hot in early May?! We learned so much about Walla Walla. We cannot wait to go back! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Black Tie Wine Tours. We will definitely be scheduling them again next time we visit Walla Walla, WA.

This was AMAZING. I booked a customized tour with a group of friends and they were able to create…read morean itinerary. Our driver, Ken, was extra accommodating and gracious enough to stop at a Starbucks and downtown Walla Walla at our request. He took the time to call the wineries to move our reservation because we were somewhat late due to our extra request. He had various lunch options in mind since the wineries did not serve significant amount of food and went to pick up our order. The Mercedes sprinter limo was spacious, clean, and water was provided which was a nice touch. It was clear that Ken's goal was to ensure that our group enjoyed itself, and we certainly did. What a memorable trip. I'm not sure I ever felt this spoiled before. I would highly recommend!!

The good - staff very nice-friendly and knowledgeable. Building and grounds are beautiful but it was too windy to sit outside. What was disappointing was they charge $65 per person per tasting. It's just 3 wines and the food while complimentary... they serve the same amount for one person that they do for 2-3. I mean if we have to pay $65 for each person, they should have individual plates for each person. I would have expected at least 5 wines and individual servings for the price. Not sure if we would come back again unless they changed their tastings and food service.

Even though I was staying at the Marcus Whitman hotel during my Walla Walla wine trip, I almost passed by this narrow little tasting room right off the main lobby of the hotel. However, after hearing all the other tasting rooms suggest this place, I added it to my list of see before I leave, and I am so glad I did. Trio produces about 1,500 cases a year, and focuses on single varietal wines, they are also fully sustainable and organic. Everything we tasted was good, but my favorite was the 2011 Tempranillo. Even though I had promised myself to not buy anymore wine, I broke down and bought a bottle to take home. The Grenache and Sangiovese were tied for second. The wine here not only tastes great, but it is also more affordable when compared to other places in town. The best part of my experience though was talking with Karen about her story and wine making. My friend and I were so enthralled by our conversation, that we didn't realize that we had been there for almost 2 hrs. I walked away with renewed energy, hope, and determination to continue to dream and see them through. Thank you Karen! The world could use more people like you in it. The passion and love she puts into her work can be tasted in every bottle of Trio wine.

Everything they offer is delicious and the price point is phenomenal. In addition they have the best choice of tasting treats of any vineyard I have ever been to. As a side note, the sweet lady with the country accent is the wine maker and will make you feel like a king, and Coco, the poodle, will be your best friend with a little back scratch. Anyone that comes to visit me I take here and they always leave with at least a few bottles. If you are looking for some wine that you could enjoy drinking everyday, this is your place.

The modern building, huge windows, and surrounding views make the tasting room absolutely gorgeous. Lizzy took such great care of us and was incredibly knowledgeable about the wines. The tasting was $20, the pours were generous, and we really enjoyed being able to ask questions and have an actual conversation about what we were tasting rather than feeling rushed through it. For me, the biggest standout was definitely the setting and service. The wines were good, although I don't think they quite matched how exceptional the facility and hospitality were. Still, this place gets major points for the overall experience. The tasting room is stunning, the view is hard to beat, and the staff made the visit memorable. Definitely worth adding to a Walla Walla itinerary.
