Friendly staff & fun wine tasting experience. We had ceviche and a charcuterie board to absorb the wine. A big plus that they are also dog friendly!

Amazing service, fantastic wines, great ambiance, and a powerful + thoughtful mission to reduce/eliminate wasteful packaging and products in the wine industry. We loved the wine tasting flights - it was a really fun experience that we weren't expecting! Would definitely recommend this place.

The wine selection was excellent — really good quality without being pretentious. The staff was super friendly and made the whole vibe relaxed and welcoming. Charcuterie board was fantastic — fresh, generous, and perfectly paired with the wines.

Such a great spot. They have really great wine selection and incredible staff. We went for wine tasting and tried very interesting flavors (I highly recommend doing this before getting a glass/bottle). Atmosphere is also 10/10. Thanks for such a good experience LJ Crafted Wines!

Whether you're just stopping in for a glass of wine or you're a member, this wine bar/winery is a great deal. Excellent quality/price coefficients and an inviting atmosphere. We've been members for a few years and have never had anything but a good experience.

Topped our SD trip off here with a glass of cab and chocolate. Great indoor/outdoor space with a chill vibe, every wine was great, eco friendly, perfect service. Makes me wish we had a place like this in the Seattle wine district.
