Olympic Cellars Winery
Olympic Cellars is a heritage winery located in the foothills of the Olympic Mountains. Founded in 1979, it is the 15th winery in Washington State and the first to locate on the North Olympic Peninsula. Now you know the stats!
Our small artisan winery is owned and operated by three feisty women entrepreneurs, better known as the Working Girls (Molly, Lisa and Kathy). And we’re true to our name as we’re actively involved in every aspect of the business.
