Located in Livermore Valley, the Eckert tasting room doubles as a production facility. Enjoy a tasting flight ($5) in one of the seating areas up front. Winemaker Michael Eckert is sourcing grapes from Livermore Valley, the Serria Foothills and Lodi. Pictured with this review is the distilling station that converts wine into brandy. If you are interested distillation process Michael is a knowledgeable and happy to walk you through the subject. Pets on a leash are welcome at this location, but we would caution readers that breakable items exist. This location sells chocolate truffles for $1 and outside food is welcome on the picnic area out front. This location is part of the urban tasting rooms that are in close proximity on Vasco Road.
