Lovely summer day at Eastsound - Enjoyed the Orcas projects take on PNW wines. Four tastes of a nice range of wines with their own nuance. Small and relaxed environment in a pleasant garden like setting. Parking might be a challenge but fun to stroll the village to get to the shop. The extra fee for the cheese board is well worth it, thank you.

Wine within - Enjoyed the perfect stop for a break while exploring Eastsound. Loved the story of the Orcas Project! We were pleased to try a limited availability red that was so good and felt fortunate enough to purchase. Recommended for anyone wanting a unique tasting experience.

Do the wine tasting! - Great fun doing the wine tasting. The Orcas Project is such a cool idea! You get access to a collection of wines by great local wine makers. The shop is really fun with some excellent curated international wines. We were looking for a Pino Noir (Burgandy) to cook a boeuf bourguignon and found a great French wine.

Slice of heaven just out of sight from the main roads in Eastsound - Don’t skip the cheeseboard. We did a five wine flight each and we had a lot of fun chatting with the gal running the shop on Sunday. The jam is really good, too. You can pick up several varieties from the island market a block away.
