We have visited a couple of times and will definitely continue to come back. Henry, the owner, is very kind, knowledgeable, and creates a welcoming atmosphere. There is a great selection of rotating California wines (N/A as well!) and the space and staff are very dog friendly. A new Jack London neighborhood gem!

A very warm and inviting space to catch up with friends after work and weekends, with an added touch of specializing specifically in wines produced locally right here in California. You can tell that the guy who runs the place, Henry, is genuinely passionate about the wine industry as well as possessing a wealth of knowledge about the industry. If you've read this much then there's no question you should check Alta Vina out.

Great local shop with an excellent selection of California wines. Henry takes pride in what he does and it shows. The atmosphere is perfect for enjoying wine, whether you come alone, bring a date, gather with friends, or just pop in to grab a bottle.

So happy to have this space in the neighborhood! Henry, the owner, is a delight, and has curated a really lovely selection of California wines, many from smaller producers. Highly recommend coming by for a glass (and stay for the snacks)!

Awesome new wine bar in Oakland’s Jack London Square area. (For those in the area it’s in the former Mínimo space.)
Owner Henry has a ton of fun wine knowledge that shines through on his well. Curated wine tasting list. You can get everything from flights to glasses to bottles. He features excellent NorCal varietals as well as other hidden gems.
The space itself is beautiful and clean with ample seating indoors and out. Prices are very reasonable, and he has specials on Wednesday evenings, so I’m going back next week!

Grab a glass at Henry's, the other wine bars' envy.
Curated wines, the experience is divine.
Bring your friends, and stay till the end.
But wait there's more, flights come in fours.
Summertime hot? Ask yourself wine not.
Give Alta Vina it's flowers, & hang out for after hours
