Wineries in Livermore with Tasting Rooms
Jody Vandergriff
While most people think of Napa or Sonoma for a wine country vacation, California has many other under the radar wine destinations. Just 30 miles east of San Francisco, is Livermore Valley, one of the oldest wine producers in all of California. The town of Livermore is an underrated, charming spot for a weekend getaway, with over 60 wineries to choose from. Here are some of my favorites.
Concannon Vineyard in California, United States

Wente Vineyards in California, United States
- chiefseeker
Wente is one of the most popular tasting rooms in all of Livermore Valley and my personal favorite (and not just because I got married there!). The Wente family was one of the first producers in Livermore Valley and they know what they are doing. The wine is very popular and delicious and tasting room is beautiful and very photogenic. The on-site restaurant is the perfect spot for a date night. And if all that isn't enough, during the summer they hold a concert series featuring popular artists in a gorgeous setting, surrounded by the vineyards.

Like Wente, Concannon is one of the first wine producers in Livermore Valley and is still one of the largest. The grounds are gorgeous, set around a historic Victorian home, the ideal setting for a picnic while enjoying a glass of their famous Cabernet Sauvignon.
