Yakima Corkage-Free Zone

Attention wine lovers! If you are planning a getaway to explore the Yakima Valley wine region this summer, be sure to stop by some of the restaurants participating in the "Corkage-Free Zone." If you buy a bottle at the participating wineries, the downtown Yakima restaurants will waive the corkage fee (typically $10-$15 per bottle) if you opt to enjoy it with dinner that same evening. This article from the Washington Tasting Room has a list of participating wineries and restaurants, but be sure to check with any other wineries that you visit, in case they have been added to the program as well.
