Never straying from its principles to create fruit-forward, varietally correct wines, Waterbrook has been a pioneer of Washington winemaking since 1984. In the early 1980s, a handful of visionaries set out to realize the potential of Walla Walla as a winemaking force. Waterbrook founders set up the town's fourth bonded winery in 1984, and in the process fostered a culture of camaraderie among fellow Walla Walla winemakers, growers and friends.
Located in the northeastern corner of the Walla Walla Valley AVA, our namesake 49-acre vineyard was planted in 2009 and provides the winery with several high quality varietal selections. The Columbia Valley is a winemaker's dream, with low rainfall and long sunny days during the peak of summer.

Tried a stop at waterbrook winery during our stay at Walla Walla. Their voice message stated they were open and the online reservation allowed us to schedule. I even received two email reminders. We drove several miles out of town to the winery and there’s a closed sign taped to the door.
It only takes a minute to change a voice message and online reservation app.

We arrived (party of 4) with a reservation. We were seated and served water. We waited and finally made an order for wine flights and charcuterie . We waited 57 minutes and watched other people , who arrived after us, being served wine flights and food. We were told it was coming and nothing appeared. We got up and left and told the man in the tasting room that we never received our order . Another couple came in and heard us and said they weren’t staying and left. We were very disappointed and also disappointed that the wait help wasn’t on top of the order of things. We will not recommend

First, I would I would like to give you a little back ground. We have been wine club members with the sister winery Ste Chapelle for 17 years. We started going to Waterbrook about 6-7 years ago and never had a problem.
The first day we went in all was perfect. We ordered a bottle of wine and the cheese board, which is always our go to. Before we left we made another reservation for the 4th at noon. We arrived ordered our bottle of wine and the cheese board. When the cheese board arrived I thought it was a joke but no the server said they had changed things and it was about ¼ the normal size.

The reviews for this place from our wine group were mixed. We had a full meal here that we made reservations for. It was very good across the board. Between the hamburger and the tacos. The scenery as well was very beautiful. Reminded us of a Napa winery that is very opulent and well manicured. They have the nice pond and bacci ball.
The wine is where things got a bit iffy. We had a tasting of 5 or 6, I forget exactly. We had one member of our group really enjoy the Chenin Blanc that was poured first while the rest of us poured ours. Then every other wine that came for our group of 8 got poured
