What a wonderful find! I know much about Washington wines, but not much about French wines. Princess and Bear offers a delightful peek into what some of France has to offer. Wonderful blends, not held back by "rules." Simply delightful!
This hidden little gem in the South Park neighborhood of Seattle is absolutely a tasting room that any wine enthusiast should know about! Not only are their wines delicious, but there staff is so incredibly nice and VERY knowledgeable. They even have a Master French Wine Scholar as part of their team. And this is the ONLY place in the country featuring wines solely from the Languedoc-Roussillon region of France. They import small batch, affordable and uniquely delicious wines from over 40 independent French winemakers. These Artisinal vintages from small family, primarily female-owned, vineyards cannot be tasted anywhere else in the country. Lucky us, that means that we get the exclusive opportunity to try before we buy. And their wine club options are also amazing. Go check it out, but leave a spot for me. ; - )
Oh how fun! Great wine bar hosts. An opportunity to taste French wines from small vineyards.
Fantastic wines and fantastic people! Highly recommend this wonderful spot of the beaten path
Excellent wine selection from a very cool region.
Very cute little tasting room in South Park industrial area. Easy to miss the exit trying to arrive at this place, but all of the wines are very high quality French coastal varieties. The sparkling rosé was the best in my opinion for the tasting. But all the wines were easy to drink. Would return!
We had dinner at Osprey with The Princess and the Bear wine pairings. Together, they are the best kept secret in South Park! Don’t miss the delicious eats and intentional rose!
We ventured out to Princess and Bear for the first time today and left with two bottles of wine, a wine club membership, and a renewed sense of excitement about our growing neighborhood community. We’re very excited to have this bright, airy, modern space with great wines just a few steps from our front door! Delicious, interesting French wines at an affordable price point, with friendly, knowledgeable staff and a great café and a brewery next door? Amazing. (Don’t forget to check out Left Bank, too— another amazing spot and a neighborhood fixture in the growing collection of South Park gems.) Princess & Bear is a welcome addition and we can’t wait to meet more neighbors there again soon!
Wow! What a fabulous new tasting room! I felt instantly transported to a sophisticated, authentic French wine bar! The staff here are so warm and friendly and the wines I tasted and learned about were so delicious!The brand new tasting room is gorgeous!I think I definitely found my new favorite seattle area wine bar!
Delicious wines and relaxing and beautiful space. Ioanna is a delight and so knowledgeable-about the wines and stories about the wine makers.
