    Drew and his wife Linda had a plethora of knowledge of winemaking and tasting, and it was a great way to start our trip off.

It was founded by husband-and-wife duo Garry and Joanne Brooks (the name "Brooks Note" combines Garry's last name and Joanne's maiden name, Note). Garry was a Navy veteran who transitioned into a lucrative career in tech, but after planting a small backyard vineyard, he realized his true passion was winemaking. He left the tech world, earned a degree in viticulture and enology from UC Davis, and cut his teeth at prestigious wineries like Ravenswood, Kosta Browne, and Dutton-Goldfield. They officially launched Brooks Note as a commercial label in 2011.  It is a must visit.

    We really liked this place…read more There was a party in the back room otherwise when we arrived (Sunday) we were the only other people there for a tasting. By the time we left, there were two other couples. Very casual, pleasant, and tasty. We loved the complimentary antipasto plate!

    This wine bar in Sausalito is an absolute gem.

Speaking of the wine, it's exceptional. Every pour feels thoughtfully selected, and you can tell there's real care behind the menu. Whether you're a casual sipper or a serious enthusiast, there's something here that will impress you. The service only adds to the experience--attentive, friendly, and effortlessly knowledgeable without ever feeling overbearing. You feel taken care of, but still completely at ease. And then there's the view. On a warm summer day, with the doors wide open and a breeze drifting through, looking out toward Belvedere in the distance--it's honestly hard to leave. The setting alone is enough to keep you there for hours. This is more than just a wine bar--it's a place you settle into and don't want to let go of.

I had the worst experience…read more The woman sitting at the desk when you walk in was on a FaceTime call never acknowledged me then someone came up and helped me. she gave me a very short pour of wine and I had to listen to the other woman on her call speaking loudly for the next half hour. She should've taken it in the back. It was very disturbing. I mentioned something about it and both women defended themselves,

    I first came to this wine tasting room when Yelp had an event here. Now, every time I'm in the area…read moreand craving some wine, I try to stop by at equality vines. My favorite part is that you can grab a glass and walk around the museum and see all of the local artwork along the walls and throughout the building. I got to chat with two of the artists that were posted and they are so talented and friendly! This tasting room and gallery is the epitome of a welcoming and kind environment. I definitely recommend!

    Equality Vines is such a gem! Not only were the wines absolutely delicious (I genuinely loved every…read moresingle one I tried), but the mission behind this place makes it even more special. I was so moved to learn that it's owned by Jim Obergefell, the plaintiff in the landmark Supreme Court marriage equality case. I also love that proceeds from the wines go to support causes that uplift women, the LGBTQ+ community, and other social justice initiatives. It felt so good to know that each sip was also supporting meaningful change. Each wine has a unique name like the "19th Amendment" which is so cool. The space was filled with LGBTQ+ artwork and it is even connected to a gallery down the hall. So you can grab your glass of wine and check out art Nextdoor. Lastly, the service was amazing. This place definitely has a mom and pop vibe and they make you feel super welcomed. We will definitely be back!
