The Rock Wall Wine Company is home to a community of distinct winemakers. Each producer is unique in what they aspire to capture in the bottle, yet they all make wines that showcase the spirit and origin of their grapes. At the Rock Wall Wine Company the many winemakers use state-of-the-art equipment to coax greatness from each grape.
Established in 2008, the Rock Wall Wine Company is ideally situated in Alameda, California. A unique concept Rock Wall Wine Company is, in essence, a wine center that services the East Bay and its many local wine countries. Boasting spectacular views of the San Francisco skyline the wine center is centrally located amongst California’s many growing regions, which allows all the winemakers to ensure their fruit is handled soon after being picked. Housed in a converted 40,000 square-foot airplane hangar the winery is located on what was once a Naval Air Base. Within the converted hangar one finds the following list of distinguished producers:
