Winemaking & Wine Tasting this Fall at LLWC!

/

Fall is here but we still see crisp patio days in our future. We’re also smack in the middle of harvest season. It’s by far the busiest time of the year at the winery. As I write this, we’re half way through, Mark has 4 more trips to Red Mountain and Candy Mountain to pick up the last of our grapes, we have 29 tons of grapes in the building, and have pressed 6 varietals that are now safely tucked into 36 barrels. If you’re not following along on our stories on social media, now’s the time. We post our up-to-date winemaking in action there. Stop in to see the behind the scenes of our winemaking philosophy.

Sips & Dips Saturday, October 11th by LLWC & The Tipsy Vine!

We’ve partnered with our friends at The Tipsy Vine to bring you a fun afternoon of wine & dip pairings. Visit both of our locations on October 11th and try each of our flights. By visiting both locations, you’ll be entered to win a gift card to LLWC and The Tipsy Vine. It’s the perfect day to inspire you for your next get together!

CELEBRATING 20 YEARS WITH 20% OFF!

/

We’re so excited to be celebrating 20 years of winemaking at Liberty Lake Wine Cellars! Doug & Shelly Smith started LLWC in what was lovingly called “The Wine Shack” on Garry Rd. in 2005. The 2005 vintage included 4 tons Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah. Mark & Sarah purchased the winery in January 2016 and have since increased production to approximately 50 tons of grapes per year with 13 different grape varietals at the new winery/production facility on Knox Ave that they built in 2017. 2025 also celebrates Mark’s 10th vintage of wine!
 
We don’t do sales often, but as a thank you to all of our customers over two decades we’re offering a HUGE case sale for the month of June. 20% off all cases of our current releases, mixed cases included, while supplies last. For our Wine Club Members, this means an ADDITIONAL 20% off your Wine Club case discounts (Lake Members 40% off, Eagle Members 45% off, and Pavillion Park Members 50% off). Remember, full case quantities only (12, 24, 36 bottles, etc.). You won’t see a better deal on Red Mountain wines, so make us regret it! The lineup is great and now is the perfect time to stock your cellars!

Friday Happy Hour – 5 to 7 p.m.

Each Friday join us from 5-7 p.m. for a glass of our featured wine and an individual charcuterie cup for $15 (+ tax). June we’re featuring our sparkling wines to coincide with their wine holidays – we’ll take any excuse to celebrate. Here’s a list of upcoming featured wines:
