The Best of Tri-Valley 

What's the best thing...Everything!

Why we are the best wine destination in the bay are!
  1. THE OLDEST WINE REGION IN CALIFORNIA!

    Did you know that the roots of California wine were planted in Livermore Valley? Robert Livermore is said to have planted the first vines of Mission grapes around 1840. By the 1880s commercial wine production became a prominent industry.

    The first Grand Prix award for a U.S. wine was won at the 1889 Paris Exposition with a Cresta Blanca Sauterne. Cresta Blanca Winery, owned by Charles Wetmore, was located where Wente Vineyards currently has its golf course and restaurant. Both Wente Vineyards and Concannon Vineyard were established in 1883 and are still prominent among the Livermore Valley winegrowers. While Prohibition led to the demise of most of Tri-Valley wineries, Concannon and Wente rebounded and went on to lead the way to the rebirth of the Livermore Valley Wine appellation and its current 40 award-winning wineries.
  2. Free Wine Tasting! Almost every tasting room in Tri-Valley, California offers a complimentary wine flight for tasting!
  3. Avoid the tourist traps! Everyone goes to Napa...so why don't you be different? Our wine region is small, boutique wineries where you can often talk directly with the wine-makers! Don't get stuck behind that busload of tourists, jockeying for positions at the tasting bar...
    Come to Tri-Valley, California and be unique!
  4. It's affordable! Well, we've covered the free wine, but our accommodations are affordable & don't require that pesky 2 night minimum that you'll find in Napa. And you won't be asked to pay outrageous amounts for the room!
  5. We is who we is! We've got a lot of confidence in our wine, but we don't try to be something that we're not! And we certainly don't make wine novices or anyone for that matter, feel like we are better than them. No pretentious tasting room staff, no snobby wines, we're just good California wine made with heart & soul.
  6. You'll always be a VIP to us!

    You don't have to be somebody special to get the private tour, one-on-one tastings or meet the winemaker. We treat everyone like they're a rock star or celebrity! It's just how we roll!
  7. WAIT... DID WE MENTION FREE WINE TASTING???

    Yep, Free Free Free!! And good too! You can go online to print out a map of the wineries at /www.trivalleycvb.com>
  8. While you are here:
    Learn about Tri-Valley's History, visit the museums and step back in time in our historical downtowns. We are home to National & California Historical Sites and the Blackhawk Auto Museum!
  9. Food & Wine are a natural couple! That's why we love our Tri-Valley restaurants. Watch our Tri-Valley Chef's corner every month for recipes, demos & more. Find a restaurant at www.trivalleycvb.com
  10. Golf Tri-Valley
