Free Wine Tastings at Pete's
Home > Articles > Article
a great place to taste and learn
about wine is Pete's Eastside Wine Shop. Tastings are held every Saturday between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. Try the new vintage of your favorite wine or something new and unusual. Once a month, Pete's Eastside opens all of the wines on the current month advertised special list (usually 40 to 45 selections), something for every palate! Pete's generally opens every advertised wine, unless it is very limited or very expensive (Pete's opens wines up to $75). If there is an event to catch every month, this is it! In addition to being fun, these tastings are also a great learning tool for wine salespeople. It gives them the opportunity to try the competition's wines along with their own. Pete's ad starts after the first Tuesday of the month, and the ad tasting is the following Saturday. At the ad tasting, Pete's usually has a list ready of the upcoming events for the rest of the month. These tastings are generally not as big as the major ad tasting, but offer different selections and are usually hosted with a winery representative or distributor salesperson. 

Pete's Eastside's address is 134 105th Avenue NE. It is right off Bellevue Way and Main Street behind Gart Sports. If you have any questions, please call the store at 425-454-1100. 

We'll see you Saturday!
