Woodinville Tasting Room & Bistro
Brian's blends are the architecture; the kitchen builds around them. Food and wine pairing is central to Brian and to Brian Carter Cellars, and he built a full kitchen and a full menu here to deliver it: dishes that meet the wines as equals.
The menu changes with the season, driven by what the Northwest provides. The concept behind it does not change: food chosen to pair with Brian's blends.
