“We had such a wonderful experience here and can’t recommend it enough. From the start, Bill was incredibly kind, communicative, and accommodating—he made setting up our tasting for a small group of six super easy and seamless.

The tasting itself was fantastic. The wines were truly excellent, and what made it even more special was how much Bill shared about the vineyard and each wine. You can really feel the passion and care behind everything, which made the whole experience even more engaging and memorable.

The tasting room is absolutely beautiful, and the vineyard itself is just as charming—such a perfect setting to relax and enjoy great wine with friends. It felt intimate, welcoming, and thoughtfully curated.

Highly recommend this spot whether you have friends or family visiting or just want a fun, elevated wine outing. Also, a huge bonus: it’s accessible by BART, so no one has to worry about driving and everyone can fully enjoy the experience.

We’ll definitely be back!“

“Love everything about Shadowbrook winery. It's a hidden gem tucked right in the Northgate neighborhood. The ambience is stunning just like or better than any other upscale winery in Napa. This last visit we had dinner sharing the special short rib, the Burrata appetizer and the avocado salad and everything was delicious. Love that you can purchase just a glass or a bottle or even a beer if you're non-wine drinker. It's our go to spot when we have friends come in from out of town.“

“The best wine storage in the East Bay for sure.The facilities here are much better structured to handle the increasingly hot summers in the Bay Area. Joe and Debie (owners) are gracious, accommodating, and a big help. Rates are reasonable, and you have 24-hr secured access!Fully moved out of the Bay now, I will miss this place. They were terrific “bottle-sitters” the last 4 years.“
