Pat Paulsen Vineyards

Pat Paulsen Vineyards

Pat Paulsen Vineyards wines are available for tasting at Tesla Vintners, 5143 Tesla Road in Livermore, California

Pat Paulsen Vineyards
Beloved comedian and satirist Pat Paulsen founded his namesake winery in Sonoma County more than four decades ago in 1971. With help from his wife Jane and family, he quickly established Pat Paulsen Vineyards as a serious player with many award-winning wines.

Wine labels based on Grant Wood's famous work American Gothic feature Pat and Jane in character, and continue to be popular with fans. American Gothic White and American Gothic Red are available from the winery's collection of fun and unique wines.

Sadly, Pat Paulsen passed away in 1997. His son Montgomery (Monty) assumed control of the original family business and moved the operation to Napa, with event space and offices in Oakland and a weekend tasting facility on the Livermore Wine Trail. With its high-caliber and personable team in place, the Pat Paulsen Vineyards legacy appears to be in capable hands.


Tesla Vintners is home to The Singing Winemaker, as well as Ehrenberg Cellars and Pat Paulsen Vineyards. The Tesla Combo allows visitors to taste several wines from each of the three wineries for one low fee. The Pat Paulsen Vineyards tasting room is housed at the base of a century-old water tower building. The grounds are kid-friendly and perfect for a picnic lunch.

The Singing Winemaker

The Singing Winemaker

The Singing Winemaker at Tesla Vintners is located at 5143 Tesla Road in Livermore, California

The Singing Winemaker at Tesla Vintners
Uniquely situated on the main winery trail between Livermore winemaking legends Concannon and Wente, Tesla Vintners—home of The Singing Winemaker—has emerged as a popular spot for locals to relax and catch a colorful sunset on the deck or patio.

The motto at Tesla Vintners is to celebrate truth, beauty and goodness through wine, music and art. There is evidence of this everywhere you look, from the paintings on the tasting room walls to the outdoor stage where music often fills the air.


Tesla Vineyards offered the first community tasting room in Livermore. The former homestead's historic, 120-year old buildings are home to a select group of wineries, including Ehrenberg Cellars and Pat Paulsen Vineyards.

Wine tasters are encouraged to try the Tesla Combo, which offers a sampling of wines from each of the three wineries for one low fee.

Tesla Vintners is a great place to relax and enjoy a glass of sparkling wine. The comfortable facilities are ideally suited to gatherings large and small, with surrounding views of the Livermore hills.

Guests are often treated to live music by The Singing Winemaker himself, who calls the vineyard property home.


Wine Varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Dessert Wines, Old Vine Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Red and White Blends
