Walla Walla Spring Release 2025

Who’s going? Anything worth knowing about? Hope to run into some berserkers.

I have a Bar Bacetto reservation, 4 people 7:00 PM May 3 (Saturday) that I can no longer fill. If anyone here will be out there and wants it let me know. I’ll hold it for another day or so before I release it back to the wild.

I’ll be there - but I live here - so not sure that counts. We’re still recovering from Cayuse weekend. :slight_smile:
We have a full day on Saturday - a brunch in the vineyard at Ducleax, release party at the Drayman for Delmas, release at Dossier, and then the evening at Corliss. So much stuff going on…

Great line up!!! I love parties at Drayman. Corliss, Delmas, Dossier. All Walla Walla favorites of mine, including the patio at Tranche when music is playing and the weather is warm. I won’t be there this year but next year for sure.

other than individual winery parties is there any general gathering or town wide stuff happening over the weekend?

I don’t think so - seems like most of the wineries have special release parties on this week - at least the ones that don’t do it on the earlier Cayuse weekend.
Most of the “town wide” stuff seems to be falling in the Celebrate Walla Walla event that (this year) is in mid-to-late June (June 19-21) - for that - there is a bunch of stuff happening like a block party, winemaker dinners, masterclasses, etc. They moved it to June - so now it doesn’t land on top of the other July event of “Blood of Gods” (July 19th this year). Both are larger multi-winery events…

About to catch my flight east. Looking like a beautiful weekend to enjoy some sun and wine in WW.

Just heard that Travis Allen of Kobayashi will be pouring some of his wine at 3 on Saturday. DM for details.
