Rubino Estates Winery

Wow,what a beautiful estate winery in Pleasanton that I never knew existed! I booked a flight tasting for me, and two of my friends in October and we sat outside in the patio area. It was a perfect Fall day with abundant sunshine! The wines were exceptional and we also shared some deli cheeses & meats and crackers. Our wine hostess was Lynette, she was awesome and answered all our questions with a smile. I am looking forward to my next visit in the near future. Patricia

A friend and I were looking for a winery close to Dublin for wine tasting on a Saturday and this gem popped up!It's 15 mins from Dublin but ivery secluded and seems like it is far from the city. Very quiet and plenty of parking. There is no covered parking and Pleasanton generally has very hot days so some covered parking would be nice.We walked in to be seated and even before we paid, we got a glass of their bubbly to try! That's service!They have 1 white tastings and 3 red. Tastings are $25 and are comped if you buy 2 bottles. We decided to sit inside because it was hot and windy outside. We were walked to our table and when we were seated, the server explained the tastings, the membership etc. Nancy was very helpful, she even got me a box of corks when I asked if they had any to spare. Even though there were a lot of people inside, it was quiet. They bring out all the glasses in the tasting (4) at one time and explain the various wines. The rose was yummy but I didn't think any of them were as good as the glass of introductory bubbly. We each bought 2 bottles and with the tasting comped, each bottle turned out to be about $22 plus tax. They have a beautiful bar and plenty of seating. They also have a small deli with sandwiches and chips.On Wednesdays, they also have 2 for 1 tastings and something called a Duck Tour where they drive you around the estate and at each station, you get to do one tasting, for e.g.: when you stop at the chardonnay grapes, you taste the chardonnay etc.I highly recommend this place!

Rubino Estates Winery is a nice find in East Pleasanton. The winery sales area is amongst the vineyards. They have parking so you can come and relax. We purchased several bottles for tasting at home. Since we don't drink and drive,, the staff helped us navigate the selection down to three wines to try at home. We tried the Landmark Collection Proprietary Red tonight and now will try others later. Wow.They have several different collections to match your taste palette. See https://www.rubinoestateswinery.com/shop for current menu. Rubino Estates is a nice winery, with tasting , not a restaurant. See pictures below and from other yelpers. The inside area is nicely decorated and clean. Out front, there is a covered patio surrounded by rose bush plants. There were many people in the patio this afternoon. Apparently they get busy on Saturday and Sunday since the website says these two days require reservations that can be made online. The business is family owned. There is an events building which is used for weddings and other business gatherings.Check out their website for various tour and tasting pricing. Give them a visit to support local businesses.

It was my first visit to Rubino and I enjoyed my time! We came on a rainy Sunday afternoon and walked in for patio seating. Even with the rain, it was so lovely to be out and about.We both had different flights of red and shared a charcuterie board. Service was ok; not the best but in this situation I was more than happy with being left alone to enjoy my wine. I left with 2 bottles as well, as if you purchase 2 bottles, $25 is waived off of your tasting fee.I would love to come back again.

My family loves this spot. It's cozy yet elegant, particularly because of the atmosphere of rest and class it is. The wine is spectacular and hits the spot everytime, we got for release typically but the landmarks are good too. Membership is amazing, part of me doesn't want to post this to avoid attracting more people.

We were first introduced to Rubino wines on our wedding day in 2016, and finally had the opportunity to go wine tasting since we were back at the Palm Event Center for family portraits. We stopped by without a reservation. My husband and I shared a landmark flight. The tasting begins with a glass of sparking wine, and loved the refreshing start to our tasting. There is a deli in the front, with mostly charcuterie and cheese that you can grab yourself to be rung up by the cashier.They waive the $25 tasting fee if you purchase 2 bottles. We ended up bringing back a bottle of the sparkling, Landmark Sangiovese, and Landmark Barbera. There's also a small area in the back, if you're interested in hosting a private event. Kudos for allowing kids, so this mama can finally enjoy her wine! We'll be back soon!

Excellent wine!They close a bit early and we had to move from the tables to the sofas- and they couldn't turn on the heaters. But wine wise, excellent! Took a few bottles home. Our server promised us a glass and forgot and they didn't want to let her serve us anymore. Must be very strict with their rules. Server felt bad and was able to get us something, but I find it odd. It's not like they are breaking the law by giving us some wine when they are closing. I've drank there til late when I was there for a wedding. Our friends are wine members too so thought that culture was pretty wack.Oh yea, This wasn't our first visit. The first was at a friends wedding, and the venue is beautiful inside and out.

Such a nice place outside to enjoy wine with your friends. Great wine and snacks to choose from. Staff was very friendly and helpful!

Such great service! Everyone was super friendly and ready to answer questions. Mark was awesome and walked us through our wine flights and even gave us a comparison Chardonnay :) thanks, Mark!Wines are good, and the outdoor seating is fantastic! I love that you can take a glass with you and walk around the vineyards. Bocce ball is also a nice plus! It's family friendly & also great if you just want to taste your wine and read a book :)

Beautiful place for birthday celebration. Will come back. Definitely recommend to try Porto in chocolate shots.
