The New Normal on Red Mountain

Hello to all of you amazing, Fidelitas wine loving folk out there! My name is Bryce and I have been a part of the Red Mountain Management team for over a year now. Which means that if you have been to the tasting room here in Benton City, that we have likely crossed paths, I've told you jokes, poured you wine and likely shook your hand or given you a hug. Nothing brings me more joy than to share these amazing wines with new friends. These past few months have been interesting to say the least. We closed our doors to the public due to a pandemic, despite this and due to the continued support from our amazing guests, we were able to keep the thumb twiddling to a minimum. We shipped out so much wine to you folks that I personally went down a pant size! (ok not really but it was a ton of wine) 

After about 4 months of packing boxes, typing on computers and making phone calls, we have been given the opportunity to move to phase 1.5 which means that we are now able to host small groups on our patio! TASTINGS! YAY! I can honestly say that I haven't been this excited about anything for a long time! Sunshine, tunes, patio hangs, amazing views and even better wines are definitely in our near future! With that being said, we take the safety of our Team and Guests very seriously and will be following very strict guidelines to ensure that everyone stays healthy. You know, so we can drink more wine together! 

HERE IS WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Reservations required.

We are able to host groups of 5 or less and will be staggering reservations to meet social distancing requirements. In our current phase, we are able to welcome guests on the patio. Reservations are for one hour and there is no indoor seating or bar service. Book online or call 509.588.3469.

We are wearing masks…and ask that you do too.

Per Washington State guidelines, guests are asked to wear a mask any time that they are not seated at their designated table. Fidelitas Team Members will be wearing masks at all times.

Social Distancing is in effect.

Tables have been laid out to ensure 6’ distancing between parties. Please limit movement on the property.

Select wines are available.

During the early reopening phases, we are offering a 3-wine flight that is complimentary for Club or $15 for guests, along with glass pours and bottle sales. Curbside pick-up remains available and you can book in advance HERE.

Sanitize, clean, sanitize, repeat.

Please sanitize your hands upon entry. Fidelitas has adopted increased cleaning and sanitization practices between all visitors.

Please leave food and pets at home.

At this time, we are unable to accommodate outside food and picnicking.

Honestly, the hardest part about the stay at home order was not chatting with all of my Fidelitas friends! I am so excited to spend some time and share these amazing wines and views with you! 

See you soon,

Bryce Appleby
