We knew this place was special when we stumbled upon it for an Air bnb experience and then decided on the spot without looking at any other venues that this was where we would have our intimate wedding. Photos are from the wedding that Lia Eristavi helped us plan. Everything went so smoothly and we got to bring in our own caterer. We have also been for other events and always enjoy the comfortable environment and delicious wine. All of our wedding guests rave about the wine and setting of Eristavi. This is a hidden gem in SF with owners who make you feel like family!

Pretty cool winery. They also rent out as a venue to different parties, groups, and eventsm I came for an R&B concert which was pretty wonderful. The artist -- Astu--was extremely talented and a delight to watch perform. There was of course wine, each glass started at about $15 which was a bit pricey but it was strong! So I guess all things considered definitely worth the price haha. Definitely a great venue to hang out with friends or on a cute date or honestly even solo to enjoy wine and entertainment.

Such a beautiful winery is hidden in the little nooks of the Mission District of SF. Found this place on peer space as I was looking for a venue for my company holiday party and I am so happy because the venue was absolutely beautiful and the event was great.
I'm not sure what their regular hours are but they are great for private events. The venue is spacious with two separate rooms. We utilized the front room with the wine bar as a reception area for our guests. They have plenty of couch seating, barrels to hold your charcuterie plates or appetizers. The host, Lia, was very accommodating

My husband and I had our wedding reception here at the end of September 2017, and are so happy that we were able to celebrate here! We had about 25 people, and both rooms were a great size for our group.
Lia, one of the owners, was very responsive from day one. Even when she had an extended vacation planned right before our wedding - she was very available before and after and answered questions before we even thought to ask them. She helped us with setting up and coordinating things the day of as well. Her husband and son were there many times during our planning and the day of, and were so

This place is fantastic! The owners are taking wine back to its roots - striving to use historic wine-making methods. You can tell they're passionate about their heritage and wine culture. We were there for a private tasting and chose to stay and talk, rather than take the bus home. We had a great time talking and learning about their business and the area. The wine is very good, but it'd be worth it just for the conversation!

This winery is filled with an exquisite array of drinks varying from a subtle and refreshing Sauvignon Blanc to a deep and wholesome Zinfandel. They provide platters with perfectly paired cheeses and charcuterie which compliment and enhance the flavor of wines. The atmosphere is a breath of fresh air and the Eristavi family makes you feel at home. The design is distinct from the typical winery as the touch of Georgian culture really amplifies how unique this environment is.
We came here for Mother's Day and could not have had a better experience. Whether it is for an event or just an after

Nicolas Eristavi, wine maker and storyteller! That is his title! How cool is that? His Georgian wines are on the drier side, but I like them. One of the best Merlots I've ever had and I don't even like Merlot. So bold and rich, I wished I had bought more.
I think I'll have to get one whenever I'm near SFGH. They are at the very end of the block before the freeway.

I'm so happy this winery has full stars! They deserve it.
It's run by a super friendly family. The son, Nikolas, is fun to talk to, makes you feel comfortable right away, charismatic, generous and humble.
The Barbera and Syrah were delicious. I bought a bottle of each and they were just as impressive at home later as how I had remembered them.
It's an easily accessible spot being right in SF so you can have a fun, relaxing wine tasting experience without making the trek north to wine country.
They hosted an event there for the matchmaking company I work for (Three Day Rule).

Great ambiance, family owned, and great wine. Location is off the beaten path which is nice if you want to avoid the mission/soma tech crowd. They host large parties and is great for an after work drink with colleagues. Everyone is friendly and it's a great relaxing place to have a nice glass of wine.

5 Stars for the great service thanks to Victor!
The wine itself though is mediocre. Surprisingly, not being a big fan of Syrah or Zins, theirs were the best from the wine tasting. If you check in on Yelp, you get a free wine tasting! I would probably stick to their reds here. Unfortunately, they weren't pouring their Merlot for tasting but I heard thats what they're known for! Victor's hospitality was what made our visit an enjoyable one. I can see this place being a great spot for a private party though! Very cute venue.

This family run winery might be new to the neighborhood, but they are definitely becoming an integral key to the area. It's got a really hip warehouse feel with a lot of open space and excellent acoustics. The family is really great ! Often times, you'll see Nick slinging the wine and information to curious customers who wander in. They are excellent for private events and parties, and their selection of wines is fantastic. Everything from white and red blends, to Zinfandels, Cabernets, Ports .. basically a very wide range for every taste ! A small tasting menu and cheese options are

If I could give a six out of five star rating, this would be one of those rare moments. Walking into Eristavi Winery was absolutely magical and I felt like I was transported into another world. Looks are deceiving when you're walking around this particular neighborhood to get here, but soon, all you'll be able to think about is the great wine and company.
My colleague and I came here to explore Eristavi for a private event. We were personally greeted by Lia and Vadim, who treated us like family... and even that's an understatement. They allowed us to taste their incredible wines

A family winery with multiple award-winning wines! The wine tasting comes with 6 varieties with 2 white (Sauvignon blanc), a rosé and 3 red (Syrah, Zinfandel and Merlot) for only $10! I personally love the merlot and Sauvignon blanc while my friends preferred Syrah.
The owners, Nick and Victor, are welcoming and enthusiastic about their wine! Although it is not a typically Napa winery setting, the environment is relaxing and gives out a close-community feeling :)

Warm atmosphere, friendly service, lovely setting, good wine! Ideal for casual after-work drink, wine tasting with friends or having a cultural event . I host an Italian Language Meetup group there and have always been treated with old world hospitality, make new friends when I'm there, discover new wines and love the combination of an open lounge feel in front and a big open barrel room in back. The Eristavi family (Lia, Nikolas and Victor) definitely have created a beautiful new jewel and I hope to keep coming here for years!

I stopped in at Eristavi today, and they were having a tasting session. It was excellent! I was able to chat with the winemaker, which was a fantastic conversation. The wines were very good as well. I tried the Sauvignon Blanc, the Rosé, a Zinfandel, and a Merlot. I normally don't like zinfandels, but I really enjoyed this one. And I liked the Merlot so much that I had to take home a bottle of it.
Overall, this is a nice, open place with great owners and a fun clientele. I am sure I will be back very soon!
