Nella Terra Cellars

We fell in love with Nella Terra Cellars when we took a tour of the venue. From the beautiful landscaping to the reception tent, you can tell how much intention went into making this venue what it is today. Our wedding day was no exception to that as well. Bethany and the Nella Terra staff all were so kind and helpful in executing our vision on the day of and answering all of our questions and concerns prior to. I can't thank and recommend Nella Terra enough.All of our friends and family still rave about the venue and our wedding day. Another thing that is so helpful, is their working relationship with the planners at Simply Lovely Events and the catering staff at On The Vine Catering. They already communicate and work out all their details together, you literally don't have to worry about a thing -- which was such a relief as a bride!P.S. Nella Terra's wine and sparkling wine is also so delicious! We love wine so that was a big factor in choosing our venue since we'd be having it at the cocktail hour/reception and our guests were equally as impressed as well.

Nella Terra helped host my June wedding and I could not be happier choosing them for the big day. My husband is not a man of many words and he even voiced that he was extremely happy with our choice as well! From initial inquiry to the day of, Nella Terra was on top of everything. Their required vendor for wedding planning (Simply Lovely) and catering (On the Vine) made the coordination of all the details seamless. They are chosen for great reason and the saying "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies perfectly. All I had to do on my wedding day was show up and enjoy the day. That's literally it! Every detail large and small was planned before and they executed perfectly on the day of, I never worried or stressed about the details. The venue is gorgeous if you are wanting an outdoor wedding. So many unique areas to take pictures from. We did our first look at the botanical garden, family portraits under the staircase surrounded by vineyards, and then had cocktail area right outside the reception area which is under a beautifully prepared white tent. I have lived in the Bay Area my whole life and had no idea this gem of a venue existed. We got so many complements from guest about how beautiful and elegant the venue felt. Kendall went above and beyond to make sure no detail was left out and that the day went smoothly. She is professional and organized. Thank you to the Nella Terra team for exceeding all my expectations and making our wedding a dream come true!

This was a lot of firsts. First time as the plus one, first winery, first only Indian food wedding. Anyways, my better half received a wedding invitation and off to California we went for the weekend. The wedding itself was held at the gorgeous Nella Terra Cellars located in the mountains of Sunol.The wedding venue at Nella Terra Cellars offers space for a small to medium sized reception and wedding, with a picturesque water feature, a stairway through the winery, a babbling brook, multiple foot bridges, an assortment of flowers, a waterfall, a huge "Love" sign and a large tree strung up with led lights overlooking the large pond. Plenty of areas to get gorgeous photos but without being tacky in a way that scream "we did this for likes on Instagram." There's also a large tiled space for a party tent, along with space for vendors and portable bathrooms, along with fire pits, and sofas. It is an active cattle ranch with at least one llama. The location can be fairly warm during the afternoon in early May as shade can be hard to find and then cools down dramatically once the sun sets. Parking is extensive in the upper lots. As for nearby hotels, there are a bunch in Fremont which is about a 20 to 25 minute drive from the location.

Great family owned and run winery!! Would also recommend for group business meetings!

This review is regarding a corporate event we were looking to plan at Nella Terrace. While we did not go with this venue due to logistics, I wanted to write a review to give Nella Terrace a shoutout for their collaboration with our team to come up with a wonderful package. Nella Terrace came up with a custom package for our coporate event and ensured all our requirements were met. They even connected us to a potential vendor for catering. Kendall was really responsive and diligent on communicating and putting together the package. I highly recommend Nella Terrace for your next corporate event!

Review for wine tasting and an informal, self guided tour of the grounds.The wine tasting consisted of both whites and reds. It was all prepaid when you make the reservation. Just an FYI. I'm not sure if they take walk-in wine tastings. I really enjoyed our experience at the winery. I liked that the winemaker gave us the story behind each wine. It was different than other wine tastings in that he didn't tell use the flavor notes that we should taste. I appreciated that so I could try and explore the flavors on my own. The property is absolutely gorgeous. It's up in the hills so the view of the mountains is stunning. The event area is also gorgeous and well thought out. For those that are looking at wedding spaces, the ceremony area is so beautiful with a variety of options for backdrops. The cocktail hour area is cool with some lounge areas and area for games. The area where they put the event tent up is very spacious.

Attended a wedding ....wow beautiful venue. The weather was perfect. The set up was memorable. The scenery of the rolling hills was eye catchers. The pond, flowers , vineyard and the reception/ballroom was amazing. Food was great. Who ever the catering company they did excellent. The salmon was perfectly cooked the veggies were just right. The service very attentive.

2022 Estate Sauvignon Blanc - light and fruity with a buttery finish like a Chardonnay2012 Estate Viognier - Floral and dry with a slight butter finish2020 Estate Pinot Noir Rose - A lighter version of Pinot Noir. Soft and fruity with a crisp dry finish. 2021 Gold Medal Winner2021 Estate Pinot Noir - Soft and fruity berry, medium body, and a hint of pepper. Dryer finish than most Pinot Noirs. At $48/bottle I feel it was a bit overpriced for an ok Pinot. In my opinion price should be $35.2021 Estate Rubertino Red Blend - 50 Zinfandel and 50 Petite Syrah. Medium body, dry wine, slightly acidic, spicy. Table wine would be good with Italian pasta dishes, pizza, Asian and hearty beef comfort food. Would not recommend with lean beef like a filet or NY Strip but could be good with a Ribeye or a sirloin. $46/bottle for a table blend seemed overpriced to me. In my opinion price should be $32/bottle.Good service, seating area with shade, and view of the Viognier vineyard. There was a nice breeze coming over the mountain for a perfect summer day with a glass of wine. Recommended to come on a Sunday afternoon at about 2pm for less crowds. And if they have a wedding finishing up you get music in the background for your tasting.Tasting fee $25 waived if purchasing over $125 in wine.

I had my Indian wedding at Nella Terra in October. It was a truly perfect day. The venue was stunning and the Nella Terra, On the Vine, and Simply Lovely Events teams were on top of everything. We only had a few meetings over the last year leading up to the big day, but everything executed flawlessly. The guests were very impressed by the surrounding beauty and timeliness of the entire event. The reception was in the tent, which offered a very intimate vibe even for a party of 200 guests. I could not have imagined a better way to get married. Thank you to Kendall and the Nella Terra team.

Nella Terra is as beautiful as it looks! My husband and I got married here in September and both the venue itself and Nella Terra's team are exceptional. We allowed ourselves two years to plan, but having Nella Terra's preferred list of vendors made it so much easier. Kendall at Nella Terra was always available and ensured our special day went off without a hitch. Her and our team of vendors are truly superheroes! Nella Terra was the first venue we toured and we knew right away, it was the one. In September, the hills turn this gorgeous golden color and we took photos during sunset. The venue really speaks for itself and Nella Terra's team is incredibly skilled and coordinated. I couldn't imagine our wedding coming together like it did without their support!
