Winemakers Stewart Epstein and Jeffrey Fiegel launched Brooklyn West Winery in Jack London Square to create an approachable, fun and unpretentious experience for sharing their award-winning, handcrafted wines that feels less like a traditional ‘tasting room’ and more like a contemporary ‘tasting lounge’ for visitors. The head winemaker for Brooklyn West is Stewart Epstein, a 20+ year veteran of the California wine industry. Stew is a 15-time medalist at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition and the creator of the first Tempranillo in the US to earn a 90-point score from an American wine review publication. In 2016 alone, Brooklyn West earned three 90 point scores in Wine Enthusiast, including an Editor's Choice. Stew is joined in his winemaking endeavors by Jeffrey Fiegel, a fellow graduate of the highly regarded CSU Fresno Enology program. Jeff brings best practices of the hospitality industry to Brooklyn West from his work for the Ritz Carlton Hotels and Norwegian Cruise Lines.

Dear Friends,

Wine clubs are funny things.

They are called clubs, but most of them are really subscriptions. Wine shows up, a card gets charged, maybe there is a discount, but a club ought to have a room that feels different when the members are in it.

So this Wednesday, we are trying something new.

Brooklyn West will be closed to the public and open only to our wine club members and their guests. We will pull a few bottles from the library that we do not usually pour. There will be food to share, and no reason to rush through a tasting or make way for the next reservation.

Come for a glass. Stay for the evening. Bring someone you like.

There may even be a red carpet at the door, because if we are going to call this a club, we might as well act like one.

Brooklyn West Members' Night
Wednesday, August 19 at 6-9pm
Members and their guests only

This is the first one. We hope it becomes the kind of night you start putting on the calendar before we even send the email.

We look forward to seeing you!

Warmly,

Stew & the BW Crew

We would rather make forty cases of something remarkable than four thousand cases of something forgettable.

So we put together a band.

The nose hits the stage before you see the band: massively perfumed, bursting with red berries, spice, and swagger.

Grenache on guitar: Bright, boisterous, impossible to ignore.
Mourvèdre on bass: Savory depth and the low notes holding everything together.
Syrah on drums: Rhythm, pepper, and just enough menace.

Together, they are Three Voices.

Most blends ask their components to disappear.

We wanted rock stars.

Sourced from the rocky slopes of the Dry Creek Valley AVA, this 45/45/10 split is a true dual-frontman act: Grenache and Mourvèdre sharing the spotlight, with Syrah delivering the percussive kick on the finish.

This is not a polite little blend- it's wildly aromatic, loaded with spice, and loud where it should be loud—> three varieties with enough personality to carry the stage on their own.

We made only 40 cases because that was all the wine worthy of the name. No filler. No backup singers. No watered-down stadium version coming later.

Just one limited performance.

Three Voices is debuting this week!
When the final bottle leaves the stage, the show is over.

Drear Friends of Brooklyn West,

For more than a month, the world has been watching.

Brooklyn West is opening early this Sunday for the biggest match in soccer, and we’ll be showing every minute LIVE in our tasting lounge.

SPAIN vs. ARGENTINA
THE 2026 FIFA WORLD CUP SOCCER FINAL

200 2nd Street, Oakland

Spain arrives after a commanding semifinal victory over France. Argentina survived a dramatic battle with England. Now two of the world’s great soccer nations meet with everything on the line.

This is the kind of match that deserves a full room, a big screen, a glass in hand, and fans rising from their seats together when everything changes in a single moment.

Join us for Brooklyn West wines, house mocktails, snacks, and a championship atmosphere in the heart of Jack London Square.

Wear your team colors, bring your soccer-loving friends, and arrive early to claim your spot for kickoff.

Two teams. One match. One world champion.

Brooklyn West just won 6 medals at the 2026 OC Fair Commercial Wine Competition.

The OC Fair Commercial Wine Competition is the largest competition of California wines and a true peer competition judged by winemakers. This year, there were more than 2,500 submissions.

Every wine we entered medaled.

And one of them was a big one.

Our 2022 Brooklyn Blushing Bubbly received Best of Class, Double Gold, and 94 points, rising to the top of its class.

Our 2025 Sauvignon Blanc earned Gold with 91 points. Our Barbera, Tempranillo, and Three Voices GSM all received Silver medals.

For a small urban winery in Oakland, this means a lot.

We have always believed serious California wine does not have to come from the expected places... it can come from Oakland.

And this year, every wine we entered helped prove that point.

If you have not tried the Blushing Bubbly yet, this is a very good time. It is dry, crisp, festive, made in the traditional Méthode Champenoise style.

All weekend, we are offering complimentary tastes of the Blushing Bubbly in the tasting room.

Come by, raise a glass with us, and taste the sparkling wine that just brought home Best of Class.

Thank you for being part of the story.

Warmly,

Stew & the BW Crew

Curated Wine + Cheese Pairing Event

Saturday 3–7pm
Walk-ins welcome

Our resident cheese sommelier has sourced another round of incredible cheeses, and this Saturday she’ll be back at Brooklyn West sharing them alongside a curated lineup of our wines.

There’s something timeless about the way wine & cheese interact— each bringing out new textures, aromas, and flavors in the other. Charlotte will guide the experience, explaining why each pairing works and how small differences in balance and structure can completely change what you taste in the glass.

Many of our wine club members actually discovered Brooklyn West at events just like this.

Saturday Pairing Experience
• Guided flight of Brooklyn West wines
• Newly discovered artisan cheeses selected by Charlotte
• Insights into why each pairing works and how you can do it at home

A thoughtfully curated tasting experience designed to show how wine and cheese transform each other.

Tasting Fee: $40 | Wine Club: $15
No RSVP required — just stop by anytime between 3–7pm.
Pairings available while the cheeses last.

Whether you gather with a few friends, bring someone special, or simply stop in for a glass and a bite, it’s a relaxed and memorable way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

Thinking about joining the Brooklyn West Wine Club?

If you decide to join during the event, your Wine & Cheese experience is on us.

It’s our small way of welcoming you into the Brooklyn West community.

2025 Sauvy B
(Saw-vee Bee)

Dear Friends of Brooklyn West,

It’s back!

Our Sauvignon Blanc returns this weekend... and it might be the most unapologetically fun wine we've ever made.

If you’ve been waiting for something bright, tropical, and just a little bit over the top-- this is your bottle.

A full-throttle blast of pineapple and papaya, bursting out of the glass with pure summer energy. Juicy, vibrant, impossible to ignore and with just enough texture from French oak to keep it grounded.

This is not a wine you analyze.

This is a wine you reach for.

To celebrate this new release, we are running a 24 hour **FLASH SALE** This Saturday + Sunday ONLY

Just $60
for 2 bottles
of
2025 Sauvignon Blanc

Join us in the tasting room where
we’ll have wine flowing all weekend.

Come grab a glass and stay a little longer than you meant to.

The BW Crew
Locally owned, Proudly poured
