Greetings to the Sleight of Hand Faithful and Happy Spring to you all!!
We just HAD to send out a special post today. We have a very special evening planned for this Friday, May 8th (5-8pm) at our S**O location in Seattle. We've (again) teamed up with SMASH (an incredible organization helping musicians living in the greater Seattle/Puget Sound area) to host a series of small, intimate live music shows with incredible musicians, sharing songs, amazing wines, and of course stories about our community of musicians health and well being.
For our very first show, we are excited to have the one and only Ian Moore, co-founder of SMASH and a soul-stirring Texas-born songwriter and guitar player who's electrified crowds since the 90s rock scene and continues to push musical boundaries from the rugged shores of the Pacific Northwest. Opening for Ian is Shaun Crawford, another Texan-turned-PNW musician who has recently released his first solo album.
As a special treat, we have the one and only Stone Gossard, guitarist for Pearl Jam, hosting a one-on-one discussion with Ian about the importance of the support role that SMASH plays within the Seattle music community. We also have one of our very favorite DJ's at KEXP, the incomparable Cheryl Waters, as our host for the evening! We have a limited number of tickets available, and we wanted to make sure our awesome community of wine and music lovers got the chance to snag yours! The button is below, and we hope to see you there!
Below that is also an up-to-date calendar of events for the winery, so make sure to check out all the fun stuff we're doing this Spring and Summer! We can't wait to see you all in person soon!
THANK YOU!
Trey, Jerry, Keith, and ALL of our amazing team!

I’ve said it dozens of times. This should be a bucket list trip for everyone.

You can get one of the coveted spots for this trip here. https://minamstore.com/food-wine-on-the-river/
July 18 Blood of Gods Annual Merrymaking
THIS ISN’T A WINE FESTIVAL. IT’S A SUMMONING. Blood of Gods returns for its fifth year with the gates thrown open and the volume turned up. Heavy metal. Wild, feral wines. Art that doesn’t behave. For one day in Walla Walla, all of it collides into something louder, stranger, and more alive than anything you’ll find on a tasting-room calendar. You don’t show up to watch - you step inside. You taste with the winemakers. You talk with the artists. Conversations bleed into pours. Music bleeds into the pulse. Strangers become familiar somewhere between the first sip and the last song. If you think wine should thrill, music should shake the walls, and culture should be made by the people in the room - not sold back to them later - then you already belong here. Get tickets today!

A Celebration of the Rocks District while raising money for the Milton-Freewater School Districts mental health services. More info coming soon, but bookmark this page for ticket information! https://rocksdistrict.com/
