BIG NEWS – Our New Tasting Room is Finally Here

Oct 17

The wait is over…

We are thrilled to announce the Dissident Fall Release Party will be the GRAND OPENING of our new Woodinville Tasting Room. The new tasting room will proudly showcase a full lineup of wines from Mark Ryan Winery, Pinot Noir from Megan Anne Cellars and Flowerhead Rosé from Lu & Oly. Our new location has more than double the capacity of the original tasting room, including two outdoor seating areas and three tasting bars. The larger space will provide for a variety of elevated experiences.

“Within the last few years, Mark Ryan Winery has grown to the 14th largest in Washington State with new wine drinkers discovering us every day. Opening this tasting room gives us more space to offer our patrons and wine club members an unforgettable wine tasting experience, as well as support the Woodinville community as we spread the word about the world-class wine from Washington State. This growth represents our dedication to both quality and community. We like to say we are serious about winemaking, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously and we hope that mantra is carried through to the experience for our guests who come to visit.”
