Efeste Winery:
Efeste winery has a rich history. During the Great Depression and prohibition, the Ferrelli family faced many challenges. Their family sold jug wine out of the basement just to get by. Over the years, it became the annual tradition for the family to make wine with the old wine press. In 2001, a new tradition began by bottling and labeling this garage wine into something spectacular. They invested in state of the art wine making equipment and planned to “just make a couple of barrels.” They never imagined making a couple of barrels would blossom into Efeste winery.
2/14 Roses & Rose’ A Valentines Dinner Soiree $95
Only a few were named above for their events taking place next month but Woodinville is home to over a 100 different wineries to check out. If you did not want to drive from winery to winery, you could check out the Woodinville warehouse district wineries.
