FAQs

All of our seating is first come first serve. We do not take reservations as the average length of stay by our guests fluctuates so dramatically. Wine tastings and flights are available during normal hours but may be limited during live music events.  Please note we may not be able to accommodate large groups over 8 during peak times. We appreciate your understanding of this as we want to ensure everyone has a wonderful experience during their visit to Cellar 426.

We offer various food options for you to enjoy with our wine, as a result we do not allow outside food or drink to be brought in or consumed in our indoor and outdoor areas. This includes cakes for birthdays, showers, etc. Please see our menu for our offerings.

We are pleased to support worthy causes through our donation policy, although we are not able to honor every request. Because of the overwhelming number of deserving requests we receive, we must limit our donations. We ask that organizations limit their requests to one (1) per year in order to help the greatest number of organizations.

Please submit via email to wine@cellar426.com information on the event including where and when it will be held, how many attendees will be there, and how the donation may be used. All requests for donations must be received at least 30 days prior to the event. Submitting a request does not guarantee your event or organization will receive a donation. Cellar 426 Winery does not ship any wine or merchandise donations. These must be picked up at the Winery in Ashland.
