I've been coming to UL since they first opened both professionally (I ran East Bay Winery Bike Tours for 9 years) and on my own since I've retired the business. Never had a wine that was less than excellent - and I've tasted dozens of their varietals and blends through the years. First rate and always educational tasting experience in the winery too!

Love the Tempranillo wine!

A casual tasting room nestled in industrial oakland with friendly, knowledgeable staff and delicious wine makes this the perfect stop for an afternoon with friends. The corner commercial location is filled with light thanks to floor to ceiling windows. Concrete floors, cork tables, and wooden chairs give the space a natural feel and helps the environment maintain a casual atmosphere. There are plenty of tasting options from a daily flight of 5 wines to many prefix flights with 3 wines and a larger pour. We found all of the pours to be generous and we were even offered an extra at no charge! The service was prompt and the glasses never sat empty but we were not rushed in the slightest. We purchased 6 bottles and all 3 daily tasting fees were completely waived. I highly recommend this if you are anywhere close to Jack London Square, it is worth the walk! Insider tip: grab some lunch by the water, then walk up to this wine bar for a flight followed by a glass of the Vermentino; an award winning white that is both light on the palate while emphasizing fresh flavors of minerals and delicate fruits.

This winery was good. Nice selection, good people. My group enjoyed their wine and the tasting experience. The reisling was excellent. Almost everyone bought a bottle of the reisling. 4.5 stars would be the more accurate rating.
