Family Care Network is strengthening our community one person at a time!
Live Music 2026
We are pleased to announce our live music lineup for the new year! As you’ll see, we are offering fewer concerts this season due to the County’s decision to close our direct bridge access beginning June 1, 2026. While we have done everything to prevent the closure, the bridge will be closed for many months and will impact access to Still Waters Vineyards and our neighboring wineries.
We are incredibly grateful for your continued support and kindly ask for it during this challenging time. You’ll be helping Still Waters and other local, family-owned wineries navigate the effects of the bridge closure.
When we get closer to the closure, we will provide best directions coming from each way.
Despite the bridge closure and increased costs from tariffs, we have chosen to keep our glass and bottle prices the same so you can continue to enjoy Still Waters at concerts and during every visit.
Thank you for standing by us and supporting local wine, music, and community. We look forward to sharing another great year with you.
With gratitude,
Team Still Waters

Roll Out the Barrels Results 2024
Last weekend, we hosted our cherished wine club event, “Roll Out the Barrels.” We welcomed our club members to savor over 25 barrels and cast their votes for their favorite varietals. From these votes, we craft our esteemed Barrel Select Cabernet Sauvignon and blends from the top barrels—a delicious and democratic process of thanking our members and valuing their opinions! With our entire staff in high spirits, accompanied by fantastic music, delectable food, and, of course, plenty of wine, it proved to be a resounding success!
