Founded in the year 2000, Wood Family Vineyards specializes in small lot wines produced exclusively using locally grown grapes located in Livermore Valley, CA. Rhonda started making wine in 1996 after they purchased the Merlot vineyard where she and Michael built their home. Together, their passion for wine and belief that wine-making begins in the vineyard led them to the Livermore Valley. They are tireless champions about the quality of Livermore Valley soils and their commitment to Livermore Valley grown grapes. We have moved production from the home winery to our warehouse at 2407 Research Drive in 2017 and opened a tasting room with regular tasting hours for you to enjoy.
“I’ve been to dozens of wineries, and I can say without hesitation that this is the best one I’ve ever been to. From the moment you arrive, everything just feels right — the atmosphere, the wine, and most importantly the people. Huge credit to the owners Rhonda and Harrison, and the incredible team, especially Parker, Chase and Michelle. Their hospitality, knowledge, and genuine passion for what they do absolutely set this place apart. You don’t feel like just another guest you feel like part of the family. The wines are outstanding, the experience is unforgettable and the vibe is exactly what a winery should be. If you are within driving distance and don’t make the trip here, you are 100% missing out. This place is special, and I’ll be coming back every chance I get.”
“Wood Family Vineyard impressed me right away. Two of their top three wines are excellent. The Cabernet Franc and their proprietary red blend were the main reasons I decided to join the wine club. The quality is clear and consistent. What made the visit special was the people. Meeting the owner, who is also the winemaker, and her family added a personal touch. She is also a pilot, which says a lot about her drive. She and her sons were there, welcoming guests and setting the tone for the experience. Every staff member was knowledgeable and genuinely warm. They clearly want you to have the best possible experience, whether you are new to wine or very experienced. You feel taken care of from the moment you arrive. It was an outstanding experience from start to finish at Wood Family Vineyards. I am looking forward to coming back for future events.”
“I visited for a wine tasting. It was the friendliest and most enjoyable experience I have ever had at a winery. We spent a wonderful Christmas Eve here. The staff provided detailed explanations for each wine, including the growing region and aging methods, and were very thoughtful, making sure we were comfortable throughout the visit. I especially enjoyed the Zinfandel and the Merlot. I wish this winery continued success.”
“We have been members at Wood Family Winery for a couple of years now. If you’re looking at being part of a community, who know their wine and take their knowledge of wine making seriously, you’re in the right place. Second/or equal to their wine is their incredible staff, who’s more like family! Every single staff member is not just knowledgeable about wine and their varietals, but they genuinely care about you having the best experience at the winery, whether you’re a novice or an expert. Their events make this place even more memorable with the numerous member only events which make your membership worth every penny. After having visited numerous wineries in Napa which are too snobbish, after charging $60 a tasting, this family owned, woman-run winery is the perfect example of hard work, labor of love and sheer grit and determination to serve their members and guests with the best wine and hospitality. Believe me when I say this - they’re genuinely happy you’re here! ❤️”
“Sat at the bar. $20 tastings. Staff was friendly. Heavier on the red variety. I believe only tried one white. Limited parking in the lot. We ended up doing street parking.”
