Wine Tours by Wine with Seth
Small-group wine tours in the Pacific Northwest and California. Guided end-to-end by Seth. Built for people who want the real thing, not a bus tour with a script.
Tours run a few times a year in small groups. Join the list and you'll get first notice when the next one opens.
The Trips
Each trip is a private booking for your group. Itinerary custom-built, wines selected for your palate, pacing set by your pace.
Washington
Washington's most concentrated wine region. Family-owned estates, high-altitude fruit, producers who remember when Walla Walla had six wineries instead of a hundred and fifty. Seth leads you through private tastings at the houses that matter.
One day in The Rocks District, tasting Syrah from basalt cobbles.
AVAs Covered Walla Walla Valley · The Rocks District of Milton-Freewater
Washington
Red Mountain, the Yakima Valley, and the broader Columbia Valley. A different face of Washington than Walla Walla: volcanic Cabernet, mountain-grown Syrah, and producers making wines that hold their own against anything in the state.
Tastings at Force Majeure, where WineChats Episode 1 was filmed.
AVAs Covered Red Mountain · Yakima Valley · Columbia Valley
Oregon
Four days inside the Pinot Noir capital of North America. Multiple sub-AVAs, multiple producers, multiple vineyard walks. Seth's longest trip format because Willamette rewards patience. You leave with a real grasp of how volcanic soil, marine sediment, and elevation shape a single grape.
Vineyard walks across three AVAs with the people who farm them.
AVAs Covered Dundee Hills · Eola-Amity Hills · Ribbon Ridge · Chehalem Mountains
California
The California option. Napa at a pace that doesn't feel like a conveyor belt. Seth uses trade relationships built over twenty years to get you into producers who don't open to walk-ins, at tastings that don't feel like lines.
Private sit-downs at producers who don't publish their pricing.
AVAs Covered Napa Valley · Oakville · Rutherford · Stags Leap District

How It Works
Custom trips need conversation first. Here's how the process runs.
30 Minutes
Tell Seth who's coming, what you drink, when you want to go. Walk away knowing if the trip makes sense and what it'll run.
One to Two Weeks
Seth builds the trip around your group. Producers selected, tastings confirmed, meals booked, transportation arranged. You review and approve.
2–4 Days on the Ground
Seth hosts. You show up, you drink, you learn. Every detail is already handled. Your job is to enjoy it.
After You're Home
Wines you loved get shipped home. A group recap of what you tasted, where, and why. Mistral WineCards for the ones you want to remember.
