2/3rds of the wineries in Washington are east, way east, so If you're going to be in Seattle or the Puget Sound you'll only have a couple of choices.

Yakima is the first major city with some volume (Hogue). Ch. St. Michelle is a good one to vist and close to Seattle and has alot of great reserve wines and sparkling.

In the Northwest (Oregon included) Memorial day and Thanksgiving tend to be the largest event days at wineries. If you're into travelling then I can send some Yakima/Tri Cities or Walla Walla recomendations, but that is a long drive from Seattle. However check out the list from this website for wineries in the puget sound.
