Visit Our Vineyard Tasting Room

Experience wine where it begins. Nestled among the vineyards of the Walla Walla Valley, the Floating Balance Cellars tasting room offers a relaxed and intimate wine tasting experience surrounded by sweeping vineyard views and the beauty of the Blue Mountains.

Located on the Southside of Walla Walla wine country, our tasting room sits in the heart of Aria Vineyard, allowing guests to enjoy a true vine-to-glass experience. Whether you’re a longtime wine enthusiast or exploring Walla Walla wineries for the first time, you’ll find a welcoming atmosphere, thoughtful hospitality, and wines crafted to express the character of this remarkable region.

Our tasting room itself is part of the experience. Created from repurposed shipping containers and thoughtfully designed to blend into the vineyard landscape, the space reflects our philosophy that great things emerge when Science, Art, and Time come together. Inside, you’ll enjoy a comfortable and modern setting; outside, our patio invites you to linger over a glass of wine while taking in the vineyard and mountain views.

Guests can sample a selection of our current releases, including estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, distinctive blends, and limited-production wines sourced from exceptional Walla Walla Valley vineyards. Our team is always happy to share the stories behind the wines, the vineyard, and the journey from grape to glass.

Whether you’re planning a weekend getaway, exploring the Southside winery district, or looking for a peaceful place to enjoy award-winning wines, Floating Balance Cellars offers a uniquely personal Walla Walla wine tasting experience.

Reservations are recommended, and walk-ins are welcome as space permits. We invite you to slow down, savor the moment, and discover what makes Floating Balance Cellars one of Walla Walla’s most distinctive boutique wineries.

Frequently Asked Questions About Visiting Floating Balance Cellars
Do you allow dogs in the tasting room?  
Yes, we can accommodate well-behaved dogs in the tasting room and on the outside patio, weather permitting.
Can you book the entire tasting room for a special occasion?
Yes, we can reserve the tasting room and/or patio for your special occasion with ample notice.
Can you provide a tasting for a large group?
Our experience tells us that many groups larger than 8 people have fun ordering a variety of bottles rather than having a guided tasting experience.  This allows them to socialize without interruption while enjoying a variety of our wines.
If I buy wines in the tasting room, can you ship them to my home address?
Yes, we provide UPS ground shipping to most states (see shipping section for the exceptions).
About how long is a full tasting?
Plan on spending about an hour for a full tasting.
Can we share a tasting?
Yes, no problem (we might provide you with two glasses).
Can we bring our own food into the tasting room?
Yes, no problem.  We provide a few crackers to accompany your tasting but you are free to bring in your own food.
Can we book a tasting during the week?
We are open for reservations and walk-ins Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  During the week, we are open with reservations on Wednesday and Thursday.
Do you allow photos in the tasting room and vineyard?
Yes, we’re happy to have you take photos and post them if you like.  Keep in mind that the vineyard is a working farm and the ground is uneven so enter at your own risk.
