Rodrigue Molyneaux Winery

Our favorite winery to visit that has outdoor picnic style seating! You can bring your snacks/picnic and enjoy their delicious wines! Our kids loved the open outdoor area and it kept them entertained while the adults got to drink wine and chill! Beautiful decor and friendly staff. Everything about this winery is chill! Their two friendly poodles came to greet us. Our kiddos adored them!Their wines are really good! Our favorite is their Italian Barbera! Yum! We will be back here to spend a nice warm summer day sipping their French Petit Verdict, enjoying their beautiful garden view and cool breeze, AND grazing on our extra large charcuterie board! Total bliss!

Lovely small winery with nice grounds overlooking the vineyards. They have quite a few tables spread out in different areas. The wine was also good. I can't give it 5 stars because the service was poor on the day that we went (Sunday). We got seated and waited but no server came out and we had to go into the tasting room to get our first pour. Then service was slow coming out for the successive pours after that. They seemed to be short staffed that day. However, we would still go back for the nice ambiance.

Really beautiful garden and laid back atmosphere when tasting.They weren't busy at all when we went at 4pm on a Sunday and were able to accommodate us as walk-ins which was nice.Each tasting was $20 and they have two different flights, so we did one of each. 6 wines in each.The sommelier we had provided information about the wine but wasn't super talkative (if that's something you look for when tasting).We weren't fans of the first few wines but they got better as we went into the reds. We probably would have bought a few bottles but then something happened that really put us off......We were halfway through our tasting when an employee came over with a new tasting menu, saying she noticed there were errors in the one we had and had to give us a new one.We thought it was odd but said ok.Then we saw that most of the wines on the new menu were priced significantly higher than the one we just had!I don't understand how half an hour before closing you realize that your prices are wrong? And why you wouldn't just take the loss on the last pair of tasters for the day and just update the menu the next day?That really brought down our overall impression, and because we only liked but didn't love any of the wines we don't plan on returning.

Discovered this gem during Christmas in the vineyard weekend 2021 and loved it! I enjoy wine and most often the sulfates found in many wine varietals leave me feeling sick. Italian wines have a higher acidity and don't often require a substantial infusion of sulfates. If you're looking for traditional Italian style wines, great customer service, and an intimate picturesque venue.... search no more. We have many wonderful wineries in Livermore and this is my new favorite. Bring snacks or pack a lunch and seat yourself at one of the many outside tables sprinkled around the tasting room. Also note, there are two sweet standard poodles to greet you so please leave your pups at home when you visit. Enjoy!!! :-)

The experience here was very nice. I came wine tasting with two of my other friends and the wine was very good. I would have to say my favorite was Malbec (we ended up getting a bottle). The outdoor area was nice and the two dogs are so cute!

we picked this place due to the lovely reviews online it said good for kids we walked in with our 11 month old daughter and the woman at the counter gave us a dirty look and then proceeded to say they didn't allow children because they were too fancy. I said okay I don't want to stay where we are not welcome needless to say we will never be back and we will let everyone we know, know how horrible rude this place really was. you might want to take off of your online say you are good for kids then.

Good wine, pretty grounds and has a "kick back and relax" atmosphere.Reservations required. They are pretty organized with the whole covid thing and it seems to work well for them. They have a check in table out front then shown to your table or seating area. They have quaint and intimate areas set up for your tasting. They even have speakers and music set up hidden in the bushes to enhance your visit. I believe the reservations are for 90 minutes and it went by quickly. The cool thing about it was we were not quite done because we brought our own picnic and just hung out, bought more wine, and had a great time. No one was there trying to pressure us to leave at the end of our allotted time.They encouraged patrons to bring their own picnic or snacks which was pretty cool. The garden furniture we were sat at wasn't the most comfortable but it didn't detract from the experience. We had a great time and i'd go back again.

RM Winery is a find: amazing outdoor space, friendly and knowledgeable staff, chill vibe and excellent wines. I especially like their Italian blends and varietals while my son loves their French varietals. Bring a picnic - there's something for everyone!

The winery is in a really unique setting with lovely outdoor space that is stunning. The people that work there are very nice and the service was excellent. The wine is very good as well. Those are the good qualities. Although the wine is excellent it is overpriced when you compare them to many of the other awesome wineries in the Livermore area. They charge a $20 tasting fee and then tax you which was a surprise to me. I've never experienced that before. They also won't reimburse the tasting fee if you buy a bottle of their wine. I was disappointed to hear that! That has never been my experience in the Livermore Valley. Surprisingly, they wont provide their WiFi password to paying customers. For the most part the experience was nice, however, I probably won't return to this particular winery for the reasons mentioned in this review.

Small scale beautiful winery up on a hill. Great ambience. Don't listen to the people who were incensed that their children couldn't run around without being asked to take them away. A winery is no place for little children to go running around. It's an experience for adults to enjoy a quiet, restful wine tasting afternoon. Good wines beautiful outdoor seating in areas where it's always possible to find a nook.
