California’s Finest Wine Store
in Downtown San Francisco

We specialize in Small-production, Rare and Vineyard-specific gem wines.

Since 1988, we have provided our customers with California’s most unique and prized wine bottlings. Through our distinctive wine clubs and jewel-box store situated in San Francisco’s Union Square district, Napa Valley Winery Exchange offers a uniquely personal and attentive wine buying experience. Our staff of highly skilled wine professionals not only assist our customers, but are also an integral part of our tasting/selection process.

• Rare, vineyard-specific wine gems
• Micro-production wines; from value bottlings to top-rated cult classics
• Dozens of new wines debuted in our shop every week
• Countless bottles that rarely, if ever,  make it out of state
• Wine clubs for every taste and budget…delivered directly to your door

If our staff doesn’t love the wine, it doesn’t make it to our shelves!

Thirsty Thursday Special

Each Thursday we will post something special worth hearing about. It might be a new release, a group of wines with a big discount, a closeout special or maybe a single wine we’d like to introduce you to. In any case, it will be something worth looking forward to, we promise.

Hundred Acres Wines Available

Jason Woodbridge, founder and winemaker at Hundred Acre, just continues to impress with 100-point wines year after year. (Over twenty 100-point scores from Robert Parker & Wine Advocate alone) Showcasing some of Napa’s best small family owned vineyards through his Fortunate Son Series and with access to fruit from the western Sonoma Coast, this new Summer Dreams project has expanded his skills into more than just Cabernet grapes, and at more affordable pricing.

Imported Wine Selection

We have a vast selection of imported reds and whites wines from all over the world. All of these are a step up from your regular village wines, all from single vineyards. Create some space in your cellar for some delicious imported wines.

    Wines are very well priced and shopkeepers personally only put out the stuff that they love. Would absolutely come here again in my next visit!
    Came here
    … More mid December 2023 and got 3 bottles of wine. Rick was incredibly accommodating and friendly when I told him I needed some Californian wines. He was able to explain with lots of passion which wines he loved and would recommend. Don came out and went into an immense depth on some nice history of California wines and its production. Super rare find and really happy I found this place.

    Came into this shop on a mission to find a good bottle of California wine, came out with 3. I love this place and Andy turned me on to a few Cab Francs … More that were delicious AND affordable. Thanks again, I’ll be back in your store the next time I’m in San Fran.

    Stopped in before heading to the airport with no idea what I was looking for. The guy in the shop gave me a quick run down on different wines and where … More they come from and what would go best with a meal I wanted to make for my wife and I. All that and he found something EXACTLY in my budget.
    Perfect way to end my work trip , will absolutely come back next time I’m in SFO

    The owner is super knowledgeable . They do not sell wines that do not taste .
    Strongly recommend for wine enthusiasts.

    Excellent- just like the other reviews. I don’t know much about wine but am trying to learn and the lovely person with a septum piercing (god I’m bad with … More names) was so nice and knowledgeable! I felt like I got the perfect gift for my mom. I wasn’t going to buy one for myself but I felt so comfortable that I had to grab one for me. Both people there today were great- will return. Thanks!
