What a great place! So we were out exploring and just happened to see the winery on the YELP App so we thought we would give it a try.
There was live music (starting at 2pm or 3pm) and the ambiance was casual and inviting.
The service was great, the person pouring our wines was friendly and knowledgeable.
They even have a Food Truck on site so you can grab food or a cheese plate.
Prices are reasonable and while its a bit of a drive back into the docks area, its well worth the ride for the great views and overall experience.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - 4939259814764Jul 9, 2018
My friend Melissa introduced me to Rigger's Loft, a wine collective located in the shipyard of Point Potrero in Richmond, CA. R&B cellars is one of the wineries that makes their wine at Rigger's Loft.
The view of the city from this place is amazing, so check this place out if you want to relax outside and enjoy a glass of wine. Staff is really nice and friendly, they also know their wine and can recommend a glass or bottle based on your preferences.
I bought a Groupon for two wine tastings and tour at R&B cellars and brought my fiancé. We loved it so much, I decided to join their Wine Club. I get a free tasting of glass for myself and a guest every time we go.
Rigger's Loft has lots of weekly events including live music, food trucks, bbq's, firework shows, trivia night, oyster Sundays, paint and sip, happy hour, etc. It's a fun place for an event and we love how there is always something new going on.Helpful 16Thanks 0Love this 13Oh no 0 - Fe R.San Leandro, CA8272105Sep 14, 2021
The openness of the place and the views. Unique wine selections. Chill vibe. It is very relaxing there. They also have a food vendor there.

Just visited this place. Very nice views of the bay and love music. Though the wine bottle that we picked was terrible. Not sure whether is was corked or just terrible by itself. Wichira Zinfandel. Please don't pick this!!! Ruins your experience. Food was not that great but edible given this is not a restaurant.

Great and large variety of wines, nice winemakers and in a great location. They have unique single grape wines like Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon, but also experiment with blends. My favorite wines is the Alexander Valley Zinfandel and the NV Improviser.
The wine labels and names themselves are very unique and true to their brand being musically themed and beautifulHelpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Max H.Oakland, CA1539Jun 12, 2022

Beautiful venue for wine tasting. Beautiful views of SF. I so much wanted to like this place. I tasted four wines all from R&B Cellars. Unfortunately 2 out of 4 had gone bad and were undrinkable. I brought this to the attention of the person serving the wine. All she did was to dump the wine and walk away making no attempt to find out what was wrong so that she does not serve the same wines to someone else.

Found this bay side gem from a wine program on PBS! Enjoyed a lovely grenache on our 36th wedding anniversary. Dog friendly, too.

R&B Cellars at "The Riggers Loft" next to the bay in Point Richmond is a great treat for your palate. I liked every wine I tried of theirs. These hand crafted wines will turn a head. They are beautifully made. Affordable and lush. Balanced flavors and color. It is hard selecting my favorite. And the ambience is enhanced by the tasting room staff.

Reason for visit: Friend hang out and special event!
Visit date: September 7, 2018
First time? Yes.
R&B Cellars is easy to work with. I called way in advance to see if I could reserve a table for a special celebration I was throwing. They were accommodating and answered all of my RSVP questions. Like "can we bring treats?" (Yes- cake/dessert is allowed, but no additional food or beverage), and "is there a minimum per person to reserve a table?" (No.)
When I arrived I had my choice of seating. Once I picked the table I wanted, staff set us up with glassware, bread sticks, and helped me pick out a couple of bottles of wine for the occasion.
The space is ample, with great views of the Bay. There are games, live music on select nights, and food trucks. On our visit there was a taco truck.
This is a great space for a casual night out, and it's great for groups, small and large.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Carrie C.Ladera Ranch, CA575992Apr 7, 2018
