WELCOME to Sunol's newest
Main Street business, the Little Valley Vineyard Espresso Bar
and Tasting Room. Sandi Bohner and Bill Webster have transformed
what was the Sunol Lounge into an elegant yet cozy family-friendly
shop, which is open from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday
and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
The shop offers espresso, gourmet coffees, tea smoothies, hot
chocolate, juices and other soft drinks, and freshly baked muffins,
pastries and scones all day. The eclectic lunch menu features
soups, salads, and international dishes.

The wine tasting bar opens at noon, with
complimentary tastes of varietal wines,
which are also available for purchase by the glass and bottle.
You can also pick up a little gourmet treat such as honey, tampenade
and specialty coffees, as well as artisan-made jewelry and ceramics.

Every Saturday night, something exciting is happening at Little
Valley. Sandi and Bill bring on the music, with top flight blues,
folk and more for your listening pleasure. Come early for light
dinner fare before the music. Check the events
calendar for the schedule. The tasting room can be rented
for small catered evening events, and the adjacent banquet room
will be available soon for larger events.
|
Work by local artists and artisans is on display and available for
purchase, including the stunning ceramic tiles by Sunol's own Tom
Harland. The beauty of this area, as viewed through Little Valley's
windows, inspires Tom and many other artists. |
|
Outside on the patio, there are umbrella tables for outdoor sipping
and dining, and a snazzy drinking bowl and treats for the family
pup. Stop by the Little Valley Espresso Bar and Tasting Room soon
to enjoy Sunol's new branch on the local wine country vine.

 The
Wine: The grapes are still two-years from bottling at Sandi
and Bill's small Sunol vineyard, but when they're ready, Little
Valley will offer the first Sunol-grown Spanish tempranillo under
their White Rabbit label. Until then, Little Valley will be barreling
and bottling a tempranillo made from Northern California grapes,
as well as Chardonnay from the Seneca Valley and zinfandel and cabernet
from local growers in the Livermore Valley. The
