The Winery SF

Had a great time here yesterday. Parking was convenient. Stumbled upon a members’ event by accident but was welcomed by the staff to join in nonetheless. Great group of people hanging out.
Really happy that the place was dog-​friendly!
The wine tasting flight we did was a great value at just $ 15. Bottle prices range from about $ 20-​$ 30. I’ll definitely be back!

I had the pleasure of tasting some wine at this place after visiting the Treasure Island Flea Market for my first time. The beauty of that, of course, is that the flea market ends at 4pm, and this place is open until 6pm… or so I thought. My girlfriend and I walked in at 5pm, thinking we had an hour to taste wine. Because these guys are so committed to customer service, they served us, even though they were already closed. When we learned this, we quickly closed out and left, but we still appreciated them letting us stay as long as they did.
The space is very nice. It’s no wonder they host so many weddings and parties there. The wine is also very good, and it’s served by friendly, knowledgeable people. And if you can tolerate the wind, the view of San Francisco’s skyline just outside their doors simply can’t be beat. If you’re on Treasure Island or even just in San Francisco for the weekend, I would recommend stopping in.

Beautiful events space… I even flipped through the photo books that the bartender gave me. Apparently they have lots of wedding receptions and corporate events. There is lots of room to be creative, though the energy is kinda dead and eerie without anything going on downstairs.
I came here for a retreat with some colleagues, and we had a blast with the wine tasting. The wine itself was hit or miss, but it was a decent experience. The bartender was a little apathetic at first but gradually taught us many facts about The Winery. Maybe he was fazed by the fact that they are apparently shutting down at the end of 2015. How sad.
Anyways, there is plenty of furniture to sit and chill on upstairs. Honestly this is more of an events space than somewhere that you can casually stroll into and drink wine like we did. Everything worked out though.

For the wines alone, I give 3 stars. For the wines, plus the attractive and spacious venue, I give 4 stars.
As an event planner, I go into imagination mode when I see a great space. There is a lot of potential here. It’s a beautiful layout with two floors. The first floor is spacious, has a big bar, walls lined with wine barrels, and strings of lights overhead. The upstairs has a couple of open lounge areas, which can be used for cocktail receptions and such. It also has additional bars and a smaller room, which I’m guessing is often used for brides, or as a type of «green room» for other events.
The wine is okay. My favorite by far is the «Glitter» sparkling wine.

Its closing… so I’m just devastated. There go my wedding plans… :(

Great service. Great environment. Wine tasted great. My fav was the sparkling. Looks like a great place to have a wedding the view is amazing.

I was looking into different places to check out for 4^th of July and I happened to stumble upon this place! Located in Treasure Island. It is definitely not hard to find! As soon as you start driving into Treasure Island you’ll see the big building that says «Winery.»
For $ 20 we were able to taste a few different wines. I love the location of this place, but I’m not a big fan of their wine. I think $ 20 is over priced for the wine that they offer. If you wanted to try more wine after the 4 already provided it cost another $ 11 a glass.
Anyways, we tried their Sauvignon Blanc, Rose, Pinot Noir, People’s Blend, Zinfandel and their Cabernet Sauvignon. Out of all 6 — I enjoyed the Sauvignon Blanc and the Cabernet Sauvignon.
Aside from their tastings — they also provided free peanut butter tastings (which were pretty tasty. I ended up buying a couple jars) and also sold different types of food like pizza and bbq.
Overall — I enjoyed the location and their décor. But I’m not sure if I would come back to do their tastings. Although it is a good location if you want to host an event.

Great space (I’d totally have my wedding here). Super service. The wine, however? Not so much. We had a super sweet bubbly and a super grape-​y pinot noir. Other than that, the wines were very unmemorable and just not that great. On the other hand, this was part of a fantastic day of wine tasting on Treasure Island.

Rude, and unaccomodating staff! Everything on Treasure Island is managed by SF Event Venues. I had set up an appointment to see SF Winery and Casa de la Vista in January last year. They were great at email communication and also followed up with a phone call prior to our visit.
Treasure Island is a great place to have a wedding due to the views, and it does feel secluded, yet SF is in an arms length. We got a taste of the wine when we were waiting for their Event Coordinator… it’s awful first off. Most people have their wedding in the Crush Room which was below the waiting area. We were told that wasn’t an option for us due to our smaller size guest count (60 people). So, we went upstairs to see the Reserve Barrel Room. It was very plain and looked old. They also didn’t offer the bride separate changing quarters. Just a small area behind the bathroom door with a partition. so pretty much anytime any woman wants to go to the bathroom, they would see the bride. GHETTO! The bathrooms were very old and a little dirty too. The plus with The Winery SF or any of their options on Treasure Island is their vendor list. We would be able to do our food truck theme that we wanted to do, since Off the Grid was listed as one vendor option.
I also reminded her (the coordinator April) per our discussion that I wanted to see Casa de la Vista. She said she didn’t have the keys and that our party was too small too as the minimum is like 100 – 150 people. WTF? What if we still wanted to pay for it? San Francisco Event Ventures, you guys need to learn manners and get some class. I wouldn’t advise anyone to get married at any of their properties with their snobby stupid attitudes and AWFUL wine, no matter how pretty the views are. So glad we ended up not signing on with them.

Impromptu casual wine tasting after we made a wrong turn onto the bridge! Beautiful venue, affordable tasting, knowledgeable staff!

Friendly staff — fun stop on Treasure Island. I like the sparkling wine.

We tried this place a few months ago for Unilocal’s 10^th anniversary wine tasting. It was our first time at Treasure Island even though I’m a native San Franciscan– it happens. Anyway, enjoyed the space, rad to know they have a space available for parties and weddings cause it’s a really cool space with barrels of wine as a backdrop. The wine tasting was good, staff helpful and friendly– all you can really ask for in a wine tasting excursion.

I attended a wedding here a couple weeks back in SF. The Winery is located in a former plane hangar. The view of the Bay/​city skyline from the venue is unparalleled at both day and night. For the venue’s location alone I would give it a 5. However, the wines served from the winery at the wedding were unmemorable and really not that good. Maybe it’s because I’m not a rose’ fan but the wine just didn’t taste right to me after a couple of sips. I tried all 3 wines they had avialable at the bar: the People’s Blend (a cab sav), Sauvignon Blanc, and the Rose. The Sauvignon Blanc was the best of the 3 and good enough to garner a second glass. The cab sav wasn’t all that great in my opinion, and I’ve had better $ 6 Trader Joes wines than that one. Considering what these regularly cost to buy (I believe it was something in the 20s range), you’re much better off going straight to a wine shop in San Fran and buying a mid-​range Napa or Sonoma wine at the same or less cost.
Other than the wine, we had a great time at the venue and think it’s a great spot for private events if you happen to reside in this area.

If I was getting married in San Fran then I would get married here. What a neat space! The wine was decent, though my least favorite of the four wineries on Treasure Island. A unique place, a great place to spend a day learning, and hanging out with friends.

The venue is cool, and I liked that when we went there were people just hanging out (even bringing their own board games!). The staff are all super nice and the vibe here is laid back. The low-​ish rating is due to the wine. I tried the blend, I think it was called People’s Blend, and the Sauvignon Blanc. The blend was pretty good, just not as developed as I like my wine. The white wine was just not for me.
All that being said, I would still come back just because it is a cool place to be — just don’t expect some amazing, well-​developed Napa-​style wine and you will be more than happy!

I love how easy it is to get to this place from the city. What a great way to relax for a bit in the afternoon on the weekends. This place and Vie are my favorites on Treasure Island.
The Winery has great customer service and two different tasting menus to choose from.

The wine is wonderful, I went with my sister who is a white wine kind of gal whereas I am a red wine kind of gal. Our guy Steve accommodated both of our tasting needs, treasure island wine tasting — what a find!

Wonderful winery tucked amongst breathtaking scenery on Treasure Island. The wines are delicious and an outstanding value. (They’re $ 17 – 45 a bottle with most falling in the $ 20-​$ 25 range.) Their 2009 Cabernet is one of the best I’ve had.
The team is friendly, knowlegeable, and generous with their pours! Ask them about the wine club– it’s $ 50, 4 times a year, and you get 2 – 3 bottles each shipment at a discounted rate. I signed up on my first visit and have enjoyed free tastings, events, and discounts since then.
To sum up: gorgeous backdrop, great staff, and lovely, low priced wine. What’s not to love?

Wine tastings are amazing here as a break from the Treasure Island Flea. For $ 21 you can try all their wines including their sparkling Chardonnay, Glitter. Not a huge white wine fan but I will say the Glitter is pretty great.
Their reds are really great and their Zinfandel is off the charts, especially for the cost. Also, their pours are super generous so you can more than split a wine tasting between 2 people. Also, buy three bottles and the tasting is free.

Start your day of Treasure Island wine tasting here! The Winery SF is hard to miss, with it’s huge sign painted on top of an old naval hangar (I’m guessing). The downstairs is their barrel room /​event space, and the upstairs is where the tasting & lounging happens. It has a sparse, sunny, urban loft feel to it… very spacious and inviting! Apparently they are dog-​friendly too (as are most of the island’s wineries).
They don’t do free tastings, but you can purchase a tasting flight of 4 wines for $ 10. If you buy 3 bottles, your tasting fee is waived. Naturally, we’d rather spend $ 50 on 3 bottles than $ 20 on 8 tastes, so the purchasing incentive worked for us.
Plus, the wines are mostly great. They make a sparkling, chardonnay, viognier, sauv blanc, rose, pinot noir, grenache, and a bunch of red blends. Even if you just pay $ 10 to taste, the pours are pretty large (about 2 oz), so you end up drinking about a glass & a half in the end. In fact, you can order wines by the glass if you want to stay and relax on the white leather couches, and relish the feeling of being ‘away from it all’.
The tasting bar was full when we arrived, but the staff offered to bring our pours to us, while we sat in the lounge area. The vibe is mellow and unpretentious, with no pressure to buy. It made for a very luxurious start to our tasting day!
We will definitely come back, especially when we have friends in town. The view of the bay, with both bridges in plain sight is one of the most unique settings in the Bay Area. You’ll be snapping pics all over the place. They also host events, so if you want a «wine country» wedding but can’t afford Napa, Winery SF is definitely worth a tour.
