About Us
Here’s some info about Farmstead Cheeses and Wines:
- We’re located in the Alameda Marketplace along with nine other fine food purveyors and eateries, and in the heart of Montclair Village, a charming community at the foot of the Oakland Hills.
- We’ve become an integral part of the Alameda and Montclair communities, and have become the place to buy wine and cheese.
- We have the largest selection of cheeses and wines on The Island and in Montclair with many artisan cheeses and hundreds of hand selected wines, as well as artisan oils, and more.
- We were awarded Best Cheese Store of 2005, Best Wine Store of 2007 by the editors of the East Bay Express.
- We were named Best Wine Purveyor of 2007 by the readers of Alameda Magazine, and Best Wine Store in the East Bay of 2008 (tied with Kermit Lynch) by the readers of Oakland Magazine.
- In December 2005, we had our first wine dinner – at a local restaurant called Pappo. We sold out the danged thing in 10 hours! Everyone had a great time. Since then we’ve conducted dinners at the Wood Tavern, Eccolo, Franklin Square Wine Bar, and The Bay Wolf, with many more to come.
- We launched our Classic Wine Club in January, 2006 featuring moderately priced wines. We also have Pinot Noir, Italian, Spanish , and High End Red Wine Clubs. Over 200 members total.
- We have an active email/newsletter program, sending out a newsletter filled with recipes, news, and info about new wines and cheeses. To subscribe, click here.
