This is a wonderful winery. It is very chill and family friendly to go & have a picnic. They are always very nice and welcoming unlike some wineries that can feel rigid and uptight. You can also bring your own food which is a huge plus! We love the atmosphere, easy ordering, no pressure service. The wines, especially their Cabernets are awesome! We have been going there for years and been members for a little while. Would highly recommend if you are looking for an easy going winery with a beautiful yard. Make a booking for large groups, especially if it is an event weekend.

“Stingy, Penny-Pinching Winery” - August 2025 Review A group of us came on a Saturday at 12 noon. Many things were off-putting, here it goes: 1) Upon entering, no host was present to greet you or provide a menu…we had to walk to the back to order. 2) a flurry of requirements were promptly delivered to us: $5 per person just to sit on the premises! A 3 bottle minimum for our group! Never have I been to a winery that behaves like a nightclub hosting a comedy night and requiring drink minimums. I felt it was a bit crass and off-putting. 3) I had no connectivity, so I asked for the WiFi password. I was told they don’t provide WiFi for their guests! I explained I can’t use my phone to text others in my party, but alas NO WiFi. How stingy :( 4) We bought $50 bottle of Cabernet sauvignon and $38 bottle of Merlot…I must admit both were lackluster. Don’t trust me? Try it for yourself. Retzlaff is an acceptable winery but it felt very stingy and penny-pinchy for my liking. And we weren’t impressed with the wine nor the service. My recommendation is go elsewhere - there are many options in Livermore.

This is a great winery! The tasting menu was really smooth and balanced, and the waitress was super informative about the process and answered all our questions. The setting and overall location is gorgeous. The pepper trees, the vines, and the live music made such a nice atmosphere!

We hosted an event here the day after our wedding and it was fantastic! Great live music, wine was fabulous, and Salome and the team were so easy to work with. Would highly recommend!

Loved the ambience, wine and staff! It was a hot day but there are plenty trees to take shade and with a bit of wind, never felt the heat. Kids had enough space to run around and keep busy!
