The pairings experience was amazing. From the food to the wines, we were very pleased. Jillian was amazing and so attentive. She really gave us an amazing experience. 10/10 recommend.

I’m a big fan of the East Bay Wineries that remind you of Napa, and grateful to have come across this one Murrieta’s Well for the first time visiting in October at the recommendation and small gathering hosted by a dear friend and business partner. They have a cute barn that’s indoor and even event space and patio upstairs, just based on the venue and our service from our hostess Paulette I would give it five stars or more but the overall experience probably a lot less. I host a meet up for ladies wine and the other manager was generous to remind us of many selections of wine missing and even where we were not allowed to sit. Some of the ones I visit go out of their way to offer you a free sparkling upon entry, or even a membership but not this one. At some you get a QR code to scan of the tastings and offerings as well as sold on becoming a member or discount for buying bottles, I’m pretty sure the vibe was we don’t want you here or to come back. I wouldn’t mind giving it another try but not anytime soon. Tasting wise the wines are actually also pretty good and the pour is decent not too light and not too full. There was a Portuguese or Spanish red wine that they’re also known for if they have it I would really go for it. The Rose was light but a little too light for me. It’s $40+ and theirs different tiers based on if you want them to serve you or come inside vs. other places it may be cheaper being it’s Livermore but the wines may not be as good or tiers are based on the wine not the service. Wine great, service has some ups and downs.

Great, friendly staff! Beautiful location. Came here for a girls day to drink wine and have snacks. The server was very knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations for tastings and pairings with food. Lots of outdoor seating by the Historic Well and on the patio. Can get busy in the afternoon. Reservations recommended.

My friends and I came in only an hour before closing and our host Salomei was the loveliest! We didn’t have a whole lot of time before closing but she still made us feel welcomed and we had a blast! I wish we had more time. The aesthetic was gorgeous even with the rainy weather out.

Best winery I have visited so far! Food was great, wine was tasty, and service was excellent! Rob took great care of us, gave us history on the winery, listens and served wine based on our taste and included some surprise taste! This was the best wine tasting experience I had! Thank you Rob!

This was my first time going to Murrieta’s Well in Livermore. What a charming and beautiful winery! I loved being seated and having my wine flight brought to my table. Our pourer was so personable and knowledgeable about all of the wines. She included a few more that weren’t on the list making us feel exclusive! Also, when we arrived, we were given a welcome pour while we waited to be escorted to our table. It was pretty busy and it is a super popular winery, but we were seated in no time. It was also a bonus that we could order charcuterie boards, and other small plates. The people we went with our wine club members, and I am definitely considering becoming a wine club member. I definitely highly recommend this wonderful winery!!

The staff's insistence on enforcing the no-food policy, even when customers had purchased multiple bottles (50-80$)and tastings(30$), created a negative and unwelcoming atmosphere.

While the atmosphere, music, and furniture were pleasant, the lack of food options was a major disappointment. The wine itself was alright, but the experience was ultimately lacking.

I will not go back.
