Since 2011 we have been presenting the hand-crafted, small-lot wines of hundreds of artisan winemakers from all over California - to wine lovers like you - at our annual Festivals.
Now, for the first time, we are showcasing some of our winery partners all year long, by bringing the excitement of discovery found at our wine events, on the road and into their tasting rooms.
With the Garagiste Tasting Pass, you’ll get an in person tasting at 78 unique wineries up and down California for the price of two regular winery visits. The GTP opens up exclusive deals and access - no reservations! - for 12 months of tasting fun. Just $69 for the year - which is less than the average price of two tastings at a single winery. Visit new regions or old favorites, the choice is up to you!
Continue to explore the wide world of micro-winemaking or dive in for the first time. A wine tasting experience that is more personal, with the same passion for creating exceptional, unique wines you can only find at Garagiste.

How to use your Garagiste Tasting Pass:
You can either print out the tasting pass and bring it with you to be scanned at each winery location AND / OR keep the tasting pass on your phone. Given the remoteness of some of our winery partners, who may have limited cell service or WiFi, we suggest having a paper copy of your QR code handy just in case. Once you arrive - and BEFORE you start tasting - let the tasting room staff know you are a Garagiste Pass holder to get your special deals.

About Walking In / No Reservations
Special consideration is being given to our Pass Holders to allow you to walk-in at certain wineries without reservations. Please check the Winery List above for those who are available to pop-in.
Walk-ins are limited to 2 people. Some wineries will welcome additional guests. Please contact your intended stops directly to inquire if they are open to larger groups. Tasting Pass perks extend to Pass Holder ONLY. Be advised that ALL groups of 5 people or more may still be required to make a reservation per the rules of our individual winery participants.
We strongly advise that if you do plan on “popping in” that you still check with your planned stops to be sure they do not have any private events or other closures that might prevent your visit and lead to disappointment.
Also, we ask that you understand this is a privilege and that you may not get the most prompt and personalized service if you choose to walk-in, given the number of other patrons and staffing levels during your visit.
DISCLAIMER: The GTP may not be able to be validated on specific dates due to exclusive club events at a winery or annual regional festival events where other tickets may be required. Please consult individual winery websites for potential blackout dates.
