Explore the San Francisco Bay Area urban wineries

There are a growing number of wineries and winery tasting rooms located in the urban areas around San Francisco Bay. They are taking advantage of old warehouses and proximty to seven million people. There is a cluster of them forming on Treasure Island with stunning views of the San Francisco waterfront. Most of the wineries are open by appointment only but a growing collective of tasting rooms from wineries in many California regions recently opened a tasting room near Fisherman's Wharf. Many of these wineries have asked to be on our map and our site is now available for them to sign up, create a profile, and to map themselves.

Region Information

  • WineryCollective.com
  • Winery map instructions - please read first

  • Wine Questers' maps are the only 100% accurate locations available anywhere online, in print, or in GPS navigation devices for 20 wine regions. We visit and GPS map each tasting room. Other maps use geo-coded mailing addresses - which are often off by miles in rural areas. Many tasting rooms are not on mailing lists.

    Winery Association maps include only their members, not all the wineries you can visit. All printed maps are outdated as are most of the others. While no winery map and info will ever be completely current we work full time to bring you the best information available.

    We only include wineries open to the public on a regular basis so you don't chase wineries that are rarely or never open to the public - a big problem with many maps.

  • Step 1: Research with our winery search engine and select wineries you wish to visit. Shop-the-Map! Click the Current specials star markers for current specials and events! New feature and just getting underway with the wineries.
  • Step 2: Eliminate clutter and Customize the map for your trip with the checkboxes. Remove from the map all the wineries you won't visit on this trip. Now you have a clean map to print. Most wine travelers visit 3 - 4 a day.
  • Step 3: Click the Find Directions button to create your navigation. Doesn't work with Internet Explorer 8 or Safari yet. We recommend the Firefox browser for the best Web experience.
  • Step 4: Click the Print Map button to print your custom map. Want to print all of the wineries? For many regions you will have to zoom in and print segments. Our maps are constantly being updated so non-dynamic maps won't work.
  • We put this map on your iPhone™ with GPS navigation with our iPhone app Winery Quest.
  • Your source for accurate and current marker positions with profiles

  • WineQuesters.com and our iPhone app Winery Quest are the only option for accurate map marker locations.
  • We drive to each tasting room and GPS map them, saving you time and frustration. As a bonus for us, we now know over 800 California tasting rooms and who knows how much wine.
  • Our maps are updated in real time by ourselves and wineries. All other maps are outdated. We make changes almost daily.
  • Printed maps in magazines and handouts are abstract and their outdated information can send you chasing after wineries that no longer exist.
  • So what's the problem with geo-coded addresses for positioning map markers?
    • Geo-coding addresses is a computer process for assigning latitude and longitude to mailing addresses.
    • In towns the addresses are close enough to accuracy because of short block numbering conventions.
    • In rural areas the locations can be off by a mile or more because addresses are not in city blocks.
    • Even worse, mailing addresses are often not the tasting room address and the maps show legal names which may not be the winery name. Map data is often well over a year old.
  • Which maps use geo-coding?
    • GPS navigation devices used in cars and handheld - all of them.
    • All iPhone apps with winery maps except our app, Winery Quest.
    • All online maps that we know of except our maps.
