17 Best Wineries near Pleasanton

“Friendly people. Fab facilities.

Picking up wine club for a neighbor, I had this conversation with another patron. (I drive a Cybertruck - making for a conversation experience)
Patron: are you Mr Rubino?
Me: no sir
Patron: are you the winery delivery person?
Me: no I'm not.
Patron: oh.
Me: my neighbor just asked me to pickup his wine club shipments while I was visiting wineries.
Patron: Your friends must love wine
Me: yes. We admit to being winos.“

“Ruby Hill is the best winery in the Tri Valley and Pleasanton! Truly a hidden gem. It is a beautiful winery, welcoming, warm and the staff treat you like family. The champagne and the red wines are among the best and snacks to pair with the wine. The staff have always been kind, open, welcoming, particularly the owner Clay. We recommend over and over, never gets old. It is a must try!“

“Nella Terra Cellars is a truly stunning venue, a rare gem featuring an impressive grand entrance perfect for a bride’s grand arrival. Its iconic setting offers ample parking, shuttle services, and an all-inclusive experience that leaves guests delighted. The food consistently receives rave reviews, and the dedicated coordination team ensures every detail is flawlessly executed.“

“Our recent visit to Concannon Vineyard was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the warm and welcoming staff, particularly Ashley Shroyen, whose exceptional customer service truly went above and beyond our expectations. Her knowledge and passion for wine made our experience even more enjoyable.

We also had the pleasure of interacting with Christina Byard, the manager, who provided us with what can only be described as 20-star service! Her dedication to ensuring that every guest feels special is evident, and it made a significant impact on our visit.

Now, lets talk about the wine! The Concannon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is truly top-notch. This wine is smooth and rich, offering a delightful flavor profile that showcases the vineyard’s commitment to quality. While many Cabernet Sauvignons improve with age, we found Concannon’s to be exceptional right out of the bottle, with complex flavors and aromas that tantalized our taste buds.

Our first-time experience at Concannon Vineyard left us thoroughly impressed, and we cannot wait to return. This vineyard has it all, a beautiful setting, outstanding customer service, and exquisite wines that are perfect for enjoying with family and friends.

If you are looking for a wonderful outing and a chance to savor some of the best wine around, we highly recommend visiting Concannon Vineyard. You will not be disappointed!“

“Okay venue for music. Food good but pricey. Wine is much better than Almost Famous. Very noisy if going to listen to music. High ceilings make the noise seem louder. They get good bands but the talking in the room makes it hard to hear. Hoping the outside venue lends itself better to music.“

“Great wine, great service, very knowledgeable people.“

“This ended up being a happy accident. We were trying to get a seat at a place down the way but after 45 minutes, and with concert tickets in hand, we decided to try this new place. I'm so happy we did. Everything was amazing. Best calamari I've ever had. The salmon and lamb (me and my husband, respectively) we're perfectly cooked and incredibly flavorful. I can't wait to go back and try more of their menu.

Plus we made it to our concert on time!“

“I love this place. I've been a member for years. I went there today for a pickup and tasting. I was going to cancel my membership because it is so difficult getting here, however after arriving I changed my mind because I love it so much. The atmosphere is amazing. The staff is always very attentive, fun and friendly. I know they are just doing their job but I truly feel they go above and beyond.“

“This is such a great winery! The reds are a little lighter than many Bordeaux blends, and they also have some ligher Italian reds. The Pinot Blanc is one of the best white wines I have ever had, and garden setting is perfect.

If you see some negative reviews here, you quickly notice that it was from a large group of peopke who brought their unruly kids. Kids don't belong at a winery and I appreciate RM keeping the environment peaceful.“

“Tenuta Vineyards is a gem of a winery in Livermore Valley. Every wine tasted was excellent, making us want more. High marks for their Chardonney and Granche Port. Their host Rich gave excellent service and was very accommodating. Great family friendly winery!“

“Amazing experience all around! Friendly staff and good vibes overall! Will definitely be back.“

“Held a surprise birthday party on a Saturday night at the winery. Was such a huge hit and an overall great event. The quality of the wines, the patio and tasting room aesthetics, and quality of the service were all just amazing. Special thanks to Ravii, Gina and Suzanne for the quality of service and help in making for a truly special evening!!“

“Celebrating our 1 yr anniversary, this is where we had our first date . Great bartender Jessie . Thank you .“

“Great time listening to Matt Finders and friends!“

“Absolutely phenomenal wine tasting experience hosted by Trish! From start to finish, she created a warm, welcoming atmosphere that made everyone feel at ease. Her knowledge of wines was impressive, and she shared fun, insightful stories behind each pour that brought the experience to life. The selection was perfectly curated, balancing bold reds, crisp whites, and a few delightful surprises. Trish’s passion for wine is contagious, and her attention to detail truly elevated the evening. Whether you're a wine novice or a seasoned enthusiast, this tasting is a must. Can’t wait to attend another event with her. Highly recommend!“

“The wine was delicious, the setting was beautiful, and our host, Gina, was great!“
