elliston vineyards

This place is close to home...Heard about it forever and always wanted to visit...Glad I did. Mr. Ellis was an early Police Chief of San Francisco, his home and within is the lovely tasting room and their wines are VERY reasonable FOR California wines and quite good. I drank mostly whites and their lovely sparking wine (champagne) Beautiful turn of the last century home with some nice antiques located in Sunol, a canyon that is very rustic and lovely. One of the better wine tasting experiences in all the Livermore valley/East Bay areas that I've experienced. I highly recommend for couples who just want a day outing or who are visiting. Different type of setting...You'd NEVER know it was there...A real gem in the east bay of Northern California.
