Four of us visited the winery yesterday, a very cold but sunny early afternoon. The view just knocked our socks off... and the wines were all wonderful. We sat inside in comfy leather chairs around the fire. A couple other hardy people sat on the balcony enjoying a couple glasses of wine. I could have settled in for the afternoon, but we were on to other wineries. We bought some outstanding syrah, but also loved the chardonnay and the Rhythm, among others.
Absolutely gorgeous setting overlooking Lake Chelan. No charge for tasting and the tastes are generous. Wines are very good and they do ship to several retailers in western WA. If you only have time to visit one winery in the area visit Benson.
This is one of my favorite places ever! Gorgeous views and awesome wine! You cannot go wrong with Benson. The staff is super friendly as well.
This place was surprisingly beautiful. It is on the hill above the Lake Chelan Winery. The sign down on the road is actually pretty small and can be missed - don't do that. The buildings are of wonderful architecture and the grounds around the buildings are beautiful. They do wedding here too - a perfect place with a great high view over Lake Chelan. We tasted wine (complimentary 5 tastes), found our favorite and bought a bottle. This place was the fanciest and nicest place of the wineries we visited in the Lake Chelan area. See my attached pictures.
While their wines are a bit pricey, you won't be disappointed! Sitting and sipping a glass of wine while taking in one of the most beautiful views around is well worth the drive up the hill. Wine tasting is free and generous. A definite visit on every trip to Chelan!
This is a treat for someone who drinks wine. The tastings were one great one after another. The patio is the perfect place for a picnic and glass of wine and breathtaking views. We appreciated the hospitality and "left over" chocolates from Valentine's day - DELISH!
Took my wife here for a little wine tasting on 8-11-14. The building and grounds are very well-appointed, and the staff appeared to be wine professionals. The tastings (up to 5) were at no cost, and no rush. They had a very large selection of wines as well. We stayed out on the deck and soaked up the sun for a while.
This place has grown so much over the last few years. one of the best views and most relaxing grounds to sip wine on. Family owned and operated they love their work and it shows!
We stopped by Benson's for wine tasting and were blown away by the beautiful setting. The wine was excellent and one of the owners took the time to tell us the history of the winery. We appreciated the free tasting and took home two bottles of wine. Benson's is a very special place!
Wine tasting all day and then came to this fantastic place! Wow! Great wine, a few bites to pick from but the view and the grounds are to die for! This is a must stop for everyone!!!
