Outdoor & INDOOR Tasting

The private Alamitos Vineyards Estate offers our visitors a completely unique experience.

Served from a vintage 1964 Silver Streak trailer and a bar made from reclaimed 150yr old barn wood from Gilroy, CA, our wine tasting is an outdoor experience (indoor during inclement weather) where you’ll be able to sip amazing wines overlooking picturesque hillside views of Quicksilver Park and the Almaden Reservoir

We also have an auxiliary indoor tasting room used only during inclement weather (photos at bottom of this page).

(By Reservation Only 21yrs+): 

Saturday and Sunday 11a – 4pm (last reservation 3pm) other days and times by appointment/special event only. Note we have a limited tables during the fall and winter.
 

We offer flights showcasing the estate grown wines of San Jose’s only vineyard winery. Each wine presented represents an expression of local family owned Silicon Valley farming and hand crafted small batch wine making at its very best.
