This concept caught on and soon other fully-functional urban wineries emerged in San Francisco. Visit their website.

Join them for one of the most popular events at The Winery SF this Memorial Day and enjoy a fun afternoon of food, music, wine, and beautiful views of the Bay! Instead of inviting friends and family to your backyard, let them host the BBQ on Treasure Island - purchase a wine tasting and receive a FREE hot dog (with all the condiments).
