Nestled in mature trees with soft lights to guide you, we couldn't have asked for a better venue to celebrate our friends. Wine and champagne were served. I highly recommend their Pinot Noir, both were excellent. The staff was very kind and attentive. We had beef short rib for dinner and it was delicious. The venue would make a perfect date night stop or backdrop for a exquisite event.

She was very welcoming and got us started on the tasting. We did one of each of the tastings to try the variety. There were good wines on both selections. Having been to Napa/Sonoma I'm familiar with the wine club pitch. It did come a bit early and listened to a lot of 'upsells' to others that had stopped in to get their wine club order. As someone in sales/commercial roles, I can appreciate the hustle and recognize that Diane is very good at her role. That said, we ordered a bottle to enjoy on the patio and took some with us for the wine suitcase to bring home. The stone buildings are pretty remarkable and the patio provides a lot of room to enjoy the venue.

Well, OK then. But man, it's like being on the top of the world there, with great views of Loma Prieta and even the Monterrey Bay. And the wines are first rate, and they're one of the few places that make a Pinotage, a rare red varietal that he wonderful earthy, smokey flavors. Loved it! I also liked their tropical Chardonnay. It's a little pricey but the wines are strong. I'd give it 4.5 stars if I could, so I'll generously round up to 5 stars.

First introduced by my membership friend then i became a member. Part of my life changed. Life became at peace whenever i come here. I enjoy Pinot Noir. Usually end up getting a bottle of Pinot. My favorite was the 2014 Pinot. But all Pinot from Regale are exceptional. I chose Regale bc the employees are super knowledgeable , welcoming and lovely. Service is exceptional!! Larry, Janelle, Jim, Rudy were the first few who i met, and they are amazingThey are really caring and melts my heart. You will be able to sense the warm sincerity. It's a great feeling!! It's rare. Hours used to be longer and opened earlier. I wished it opened earlier. Closing early i understand bc it gets darker early in the winter months. I do suggest hours of 11am-5pm during the longer months of daylight though. I miss the days that I spent 11 am - 5pm enjoying Pinot and taking in the beautiful landscapes. My dream is for Regale to open on Friday and close at 7 PM for people who want to relax after work. I would be at Regale's every Friday after work I definitely recommend Regale Winery & Vineyard! It is absolutely a very Beautiful, Adults only, winery & vineyard. I enjoy coming here Rain or Shine. Listening to the rain and raindrops is tranquil. Very soothing.

A Mountaintop Sanctuary for Fine Wine & Good Times…read more We spent another unforgettable evening at Wrights Station for their latest wine release party! Having been members for a couple of years--and frequenting the tasting room long before that--we can confidently say this place never loses its magic. Perched high in the mountains, the tasting room captures that perfectly cozy farmhouse charm paired with breathtaking views. It's the ultimate spot to unplug, unwind, and sip your way through a flight or a few excellent glasses. Dan, his wife, and the entire team are always the heart of the experience--consistently warm, welcoming, and an absolute joy to chat with. This weekend came with an extra special treat: a sneak peek at next year's Sangiovese! Getting a firsthand look at the grapes mid-fermentation was such a unique insight into their craft. The paired bites were equally outstanding, with the beef Wellington taking the crown as our absolute favorite. Whether you're planning a big group gathering, a family afternoon, or a relaxed date with your favorite person, Wrights Station always delivers. Best of all? It's completely pup-friendly. Our dogs are always greeted like family by the staff every time they tag along. If you haven't visited yet, put it at the top of your list--you won't be disappointed!

Their wine was good too! I didn't get a chance to buy a bottle while there but thankfully, they are close so can swing by another time!

A bottle of wine ranges from $45- $75 (as I recall), very reasonable considering you can use their picnic tables throughout the day. It's on a first come first served basis, and they don't rent out their space for private parties. One feedback though - since I haven't had their wine before, I asked for a small sip between the two wine before purchasing and they said "buy the full tasting".

We liked the 3rd cab on the list. The syrah tasted lighter than other syrahs I've tasted. I'm guessing there can only be at most 2 appointments at once. We were there at 1pm and another group came at 1:30pm. We all got to go on a short tour to the vineyard and the wine cellar basement. One bathroom in the house for guests to use. Driving up to the vineyard was very narrow and scary. There's 4-5 parking spaces. Very intimate and quiet tasting experience. Noelle and Bill were very friendly and welcoming. They only make about 300 wines. About 75 for each wine. Prices of the wines vary from $25-40. Their dog is very friendly. My husband got a nice extra splash for drinking his wine fast haha. Bill didn't want him to have an empty glass during the tour. Thoughtful of him! Definitely check out this vineyard if you like red wines and more intimate setting.

They allow you to bring in your own picnic/snacks/lunch as long as you clean up after yourself and pick up your trash which you have to take long with you. Not sure if it's a Covid thing but doesn't seem too much of an ask so we were happy to oblige. Definitely will visit again!
