RESERVE YOUR TASTING WITH OWNERS EMILY & LEE!

We are so excited to welcome you out to our winery. You'll experience the Yakima Valley at its fullest, surrounded by orchards, the Rattlesnake Hills and mountain views.

Given the fact this is a small, family-owned and operated winery, we do have limited seating. This allows Emily & Lee time with each of you to share info on the wines and our winery journey.

Here's how we set up tastings and patio sipping at Fortuity:

Guided Seated Tastings - reservations encouraged: Owners Emily & Lee look forward to hosting you at the winery! As part of our guided tasting, we'll welcome you with one of our favorite aromatic, bright, crisp whites and then enjoy a tasting of four additional wines.

Tastings are $15 per person, and may be applied toward your wine purchase of two bottles or more per person. Guided tastings are included in club membership; number of tastings included based on club level.  

For larger groups, see below. Seats are in the open air winery, with views of the winery grounds. While reservations are highly encouraged, we will accommodate walk-ups if seating is available.

Casual Patio Sipping/Seating: If you prefer to go at your own pace, join us on the winery patio or lawn for wines by the glass, ranging from $9-15, or bottle. Wine club members receive discounts on glass pours. Please order at the bar inside the winery. Seating is open; no reservations for this experience! Outside food is allowed; please clean up table upon leaving. No buses without prior arrangements.
