At the Chateau Ste. Michelle Winery he winery staff is extremely cheery (though I have never met a grumpy staffer at a wine tasting room -- must be a pretty fun job) and happy to talk up the wines. The winery's $15 per 5-glass tasting, with a discount on any bottles you choose to buy, is fairly standard for the Woodinville area and quite reasonable considering the high quality wines and wide variety. The tasting room can get a little crowded at peak times, but it's generally not too long a wait to get a seat or another glass of wine.

Overall, a really great experience and one that should definitely be on your list if you love wines and are in the greater Seattle area.
