    Absolutely stellar. Dave and Barbara are the consummate hosts. They offer their property with kindness and graciousness, and are a pleasure to work with. They hosted our wedding and everyone gushed about how beautiful the venue was. The grounds are immaculately groomed and tastefully decorated with original art. The views are simply inspirational, spanning from Suisun Bay to Mount Diablo, with rolling hills and oak trees in between, and the Bhachu vineyard in the foreground. We cannot thank them enough for making our wedding experience magnificent.

    If I can give this review more than 5 stars, I definitely will!!!! First of, we really would like to thank Dave and Barbara for welcoming us to their home and letting us celebrate our special day in their property. Having to postpone our wedding 3x due to covid was very stressful and very challenging! I first came across Bhachu Vineyards from my cousin's IG stories back in Oct 2019, she was a bridesmaid to a wedding and the venue just caught my attention right away. I went and googled their contact info thru their website and in Nov 2019, I reached out to Barbara to inquire for availability. Unfortunately our original wedding date (June 26, 2021) was already booked so we decided to wait on how things will work out with covid. Finally, on Feb 2021, we decided to postpone our June wedding to Oct 2nd and decided to schedule a tour with Barbara as soon as I found out that the venue is still available. I knew from the moment we stepped into their property, it was all meant to be. Barbara was super welcoming and she was supeeeeer nice! As soon as we went back to the car at the end of the tour, it wasn't even a question! We booked Bhachu Vineyards as our official wedding venue within 10mins of leaving and we couldn't be more happier with our decision! From short notice with change of venue (Feb to Oct), surprisingly, all of our vendors were able to move our dates with no hassles and things just fell into the right places! We realized and understood why our original plan didn't go through, it's all about the right moment and THE right venue. Fast forward to our wedding day, it was indeed a fairytale dream come true!!!! My vision was all brought into reality. The venue was sooo perfect, the weather was perfect, everything was perfect. We definitely had an epic wedding!!! Barbara and Dave, thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!! The Romeros

    This place is so beautiful and very well maintained. I had my bridal shower here and it came out absolutely stunning! Thank you so much to Barbara for being so helpful throughout the whole process and making sure that everything was set up correctly! I would love to have all of my events here in the future!

    Such a beautiful setting, and great hosts! Looking forward to our friend's wedding there, and we had a beautiful wine tasting and tour with Barb and Dave. Stunning views, immaculate grounds, and very good wine. Love this place!

    This place wasn't originally on our radar for a wine tasting. We got a last minute reservation and boy are we glad we did. Wine was delicious, venue was gorgeous, staff was friendly. Loved it. Would go again.

    Bhachu Vineyards is the most amazing wedding venue around. If you're lucky enough to find an open date that works, book it - you will be so glad you did! We hosted our wedding on July 30. It was a perfect day! I could not have asked for a more beautiful garden setting for the ceremony, with the coolest walk a bride could take, on a path through the trees, sun shining through - the pictures' are amazing. We chose the garden are for cocktails, using the deck for family photos with a gorgeous backdrop. Then we has the party walk behind the house to the reeption area. I have had more than one guest tell me the view and the setting walking into the reception area was the best they have ever seen. Barbara and Dave are gracious hosts, going out of their way to make sure the day runs smoothly. We can't thank them enough for everything throughout the planning process. We had beautiful weather, although a tad cool for mid-summer, and Dave worked hard dragging over extra heaters to make sure our Moms were warm. Good news we didn't need them long - the evening was absolutely beautiful. The venue is so unique. We looked at a couple of golf courses and more traditional wedding venues first, then fell in love with Bhachu. It's truly magical and so much more than I could have imagined for our special day. I just want to go back and re-live it again and again!

    Where do I even begin? Dave and Barbara, thank you for the wonderful time you both gave us yesterday 5/8/21. We honestly could've spent the whole weekend hanging with you both sharing stories and laughs! Thank you Dave for the education and answering all of our questions about your delicious wine! It was so difficult to decide on a favorite because all of them were great! Barbara, thank you for accommodating our kids and sharing with them the things they think are super cool as young kids. They got an up close and personal experience with a car they wanted to always see the inside of. Thank you for the tour of your gorgeous estate! The views and setting can not be matched! So breathtaking! Yelp doesn't have enough stars on this app that would suffice for how pleased we are to have spent time with you both! This was the beginning of many many more times in the future! So grateful to have you as new friends Barbara and Dave! All the best, - Neomar and Emillie Aragona

    Had such a great time this past Mother's Day weekend at Bhachu Vineyards! I didn't realize there were wineries in Martinez, but this one in particular is truly a gem. Dave & Barbara provide excellent service, an inviting atmosphere, and are a sweet & fun couple to hang out with. We went with 3 other families and it was the perfect place to enjoy our time together. We were in awe of their property, which is very well kept, as well as the stunning views of the hills & valleys. We will definitely be back!

    I booked with Bhachu after my first choice of wedding venues ended up closing down due to Covid. Elisa's catering was my caterer of choice and he had reached out to me about also hosting at Bhachu. My husband and I (fiancé at the time) went to view the property and we fell in love. Bhachu is in the Martínez hills, overlooking Mt. Diablo and the Bay Area. It's a private vineyard with grape vines all around the property as well as a little bit of an enchanted forest. Bhachu Vineyards is a very romantic and secluded location with many scenic views for wedding photos. In every direction, there was an opportunity for another beautiful photo. When I booked with Bhachu via Elisa's catering company, the whole wedding setup/cleanup, bartenders, catering, wedding planning were all inclusive with one another. We paid to use the property for the day, there are different price tiers depending on the number of guests you invite & then you pay for the catering and everything was pretty much taken care of. They always ordered the rentals, we used the day of. They made wedding planning so easy for me & all of my guests were telling us all day and night how "over the top" we went. However, with the pricing of Bhachu, I feel like we didn't go over the top, I guess because it came together beautifully and was a beautiful place, people thought we spent so much money on it. I saved $10K after switching to Bhachu compared to what the last place was charging me and Bhachu was a much more nicer place than the last venue. If anyone were to have an event and asked me if I knew a place, I'm forever going to say Bhachu Vineyards!!!

They have semi-rustic event space, some goats, corn husk spots, tables with covering and a beautiful covered barn area. Also a separate area to showcase and serve their different offerings. Wines (red & white)...I had the cab and thought it was a decent full flavor. They also have honey, fresh eggs, a few veggies & olive oil. I think the sun had me off my game because I left without trying the olive oil (usually my favorite)! Did purchase the honey and it's a nice smooth flavor. Last but not last was the WONDERFUL house manager. I didn't get her name, she was running around helping everyone, she is a warm,nurturing professional that felt like a breath of fresh air. She was juggling task for sure, but the patrons loved her it had a family atmosphere. I can't wait to meander in the hills again and visit this farm another day in the future. Great idea.. solid event space. Thank you, Sharine

Small family winery tucked into the hills near Martinez, and the wines held up better than I expected for a spot this close to home. The owner and winemaker greeted us right away and walked us through every pour and the family history behind the label. We did the 5-flight tasting, 12 dollars for 1-ounce pours off a long list of Zinfandels, Petite Sirah, Merlot, Carignan, and more. Here's the part worth knowing: the flight is limited on paper, but he let us re-taste and even poured things not on the list. The 2020 Petite Sirah Hillside and the estate Zinfandels stood out enough for us to take bottles home, and prices were fair. One tasting fee gets applied toward a two-bottle purchase, and it's 20 percent off six or more. Setup is casual and homey. A walk-up wine bar, a front patio with a couple of bistro tables and wine barrels, a single bathroom inside, and a back outdoor area with tables where they run live music when it's happening. The indoor tasting room is cluttered and lived-in, not polished, which honestly fit the vibe. Logistics: park along the road or in the dirt lot across the street, right next to a field of grapes. Look for 4620. If you go to Napa often and assume nothing near home compares, this is a fun, low-key stop worth the detour. Grab the Petite Sirah.

    What a great find for downtown Martinez! I came here with two people on a Saturday afternoon and…read morewas surprised to discover this wine tasting room. Each of us completed a tasting for a very affordable price around $12/person. We decided to each purchase a bottle to waive our tasting fee and support this business owner. The wines were delicious and was also exciting to hear that on Sundays in the afternoon, you can go to their winery location in the vineyards and do a tasting. They usually have free music there too.

When we first arrived we were seated right away and given waters immediately by our lovely host, after being seating it took 15 minutes for our waiter to even look at us and when she did she said "Do you know what you want to drink?", this was our first interaction. It took about 20 minutes to receive our wine and when she brought it to us she never let us taste the wine before pouring it, which I have never experienced at any other winery. After leaving it took an extra 10 minutes to receive our order of French fries, luckily the water machine was right next to us so whenever we needed a refill we could just get up and get it ourselves! We almost asked them to not even bring out the bread because it had been 45 minutes after ordering before it came to our table. I think we would have been more understanding if it was a busy night but it was the complete opposite. I could have driven all the way to Napa, been served, eaten a full meal, then home with my teeth brushed in bed by 8, but instead I'm at Shadowbrook waiting for my bread. Overall the food was great, the wine was excellent but the service was absolutely horrific! We felt overlooked and unwelcome from the start. Our server barely acknowledged us and gave the impression that we weren't worth her time while serving others next to us with enthusiasm. Unfortunately the 20% service charge did it for me, I wouldn't mind paying if it was worth it, if I could tip our waitress less I would.
