Picazo Vineyards is a true luxury here in Livermore. The wine is by far the most unique and exclusive wine here in the Bay Area. If you are a Merlot drinker, I think you will agree that this is the best Merlot in the valley! This is not your everyday wine, this is your special occasion wine and should be a part of every wine lover's collection. There is no tasting room in Livermore, so you must make a private reservation. The winemaker, Mark Clarin, is extremely knowledgable and will share as much information with you as wish. The owners, Pam and Jose Picazo are very delightful and are often available for tastings too! If you do travel up to Napa, be sure to make a reservation in the cave as well!
