Walter’s Wine Shop was created to be a comfortable space where people can come to drink wine, socialize, and take a break from the stress of every day life. They sell a large variety of high quality wine from around the world and offer tastings and classes for anyone wanting to learn more about wine. Don’t forget to pop next door to their sister shop Upwell Wine & Coffee for a caffeine boost before you leave.

Visit Walter’s every Tuesday from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. for a wine tasting. Tickets are $15 and include an opportunity to try a new wine that follows a monthly theme (sometimes attending tastings can earn you chances to win freebies and free tastings) and learn more about them and how they’re made.
Walter’s Wine Shop is located at 4811 California Ave SW, Seattle, WA 98116.
If you like their wine and decide to get more involved, they have a wine club called Walter’s World that you can join starting at $75 a month for their core white and red (the price goes up as you add more bottles/types of wine). Walter’s World members have access to perks like free corkage on retail bottles, 10% off retail coffee, 10% off private events, 10% all Walter’s and Upwell merch, first access to special Walter’s events, and a complimentary Walter’s themed 4-bottle tote with your first release.
