We started our day of wine tasting at The Mountain Winery. We picnicked up above the amphitheater while a live band played below. It was lovely. Then our group proceeded down to the wine tasting patio where we were told we had to purchase our tastes inside. Inside consisted of loud 80's music, a dimly lit room during the middle... More

It is very difficult to imagine such a romantic picturesque venue for concerts and wine tasting in the of season. Located in the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains above Saratoga. The view of the Santa Clara Valley (Silicon Valley) is very dramatic. Although the beverage and food prices on concert evenings are quite pricy the location is unique.

Saw a concert here - cool venue but a long drive from the bay. It was really fun sitting outside though under the stars listening to music. Pretty good beer and wine selection, but overpriced. Cool set-up for the seats and stage and stuff - you feel close and intimate.

I went to the Mountain Winery this past weekend, and wow! Had an excellent time! I took a chance and attended a live concert in their Grand Hall with Noel Catura and his Rhythmic Jazz-Funk Fusion Band. The a la carte brunch was scheduled to start at 10 and go to 3pm, but music did not actually start until nearly... More

We went there recently in a large group for wine tasting. The staff was unfriendly and was not ready to provide extra glasses for members in the party to drink water. Starting half an hour before closing time they starting announcing that they are going to close and how the guests should walk out without stopping and deviating from the... More

I visited the winery to attend Duran Duran Concert. I felt like to be in Verona at the arena...of course the venues is not that old and full of history but I liked the atmosphere. The view is very good but I think the food and wine is a little pricy...I think it's a must to go for concerts or... More

The venue has and always will be the most amazing concert venue in the bay area (IMHO) with views of the valley lights and peace and tranquility of the mountains. The artists that perform here are legendary and their concerts are breathtaking. Unfortunately, some idiots that run this place ripped out the old seats that used to just slide together... More

We visited the winery as a "bonus" program number in our last day in California, and it didn't fail. The views are great, and the atmosphere in the wine bar was very friendly. We took a six wine tasting menu, and all of the wines were good. Especially the zinfandel and merlot were positively interesting, I highly recommend tasting them.
