About Our Venue
Roland Wines is becoming one of Southwest Washington’s best keep secrets for music lovers. Small in size but big in personality. It has a super club feel, but in a winery setting. We do not take reservation, so show up early and enjoy our wine, or grab a beer or cocktail. We do, however, have a few tables of 4 reserved for those who would like to sponsor one of the events. Sponsorships allow us to bring in acts that otherwise would be out of reach for a small venue. Contact Marc if you would like to sponsor a show
