The Steven Kent Winery — Attraction in Livermore

I was in a group of 7 that participated in the "Private Salon Experience with Resident Sommelier!". This was hands down one of the most memorable wine tasting experiences I have ever had, and I have had many. What made it so special was VJ, our Resident Sommelier. He was such a pleasure to learn from, extremely knowledgeable, and made the whole experience fun! He answered all of our questions and had great stories! I cannot say enough great things about him! The room the tasting happens in is so elegant and beautiful. We sat down to a table served with 4 tastings. Each unique for their history and flavors. There is also a door that opens to a deck with a gorgeous view of the vineyard. I am so grateful I was able to have this experience and I think all wineries should offer it! It is truly the first class way of tasting wine! "Coach" will just never be the same again. Worth every penny and more! I highly recommend if you are in town! Truly a one of a...

Solid! Absolutely solid wine. The type where there wasn't really anything wrong with any of the wines. The type where you are pretty tempted to join because you just agree with how the winemaker is making wine. Going to have to come back again here to try the flight again after their next release to see if lightning strikes twice, in which case we'll have to join. Highly recommend if you're at the complex and trying to decide which of the little tasting rooms to check out.

Been here 3 times now since a family member is a wine club member. This is just a small tasting room, but their usually not packed and have both indoor and outdoor seating. They have a section in the back that is for members only. There is only 1 bathroom though so plan accordingly.

They always start you off with a welcome glass of sparkling wine then you choose your tasting. There's 2 teasing options, a normal $20 or a higher end $60 one. Each with 4 normal sized pours, which are all given at once in little caraffes so you can taste at your own pace. Their wines are high quality, more red heavy, but they have a variety. Their style is more earthy, bold, barrel aged reds.

Service is always good. They allow outside food. Street parking is not too difficult....
