1974 Fiat 500 R: A Symbol of Italian Heritage at Auto Vino

At Auto Vino, we showcase rare cars, fine wine, and Italian culture. Our 1974 Fiat 500 R, painted in Italian flag colors with the Mona Lisa on the hood, is a standout tribute to Italy's automotive legacy.

A Storied Past

This Fiat 500, bought initially by Buff Giurlani from the Mona Lisa restaurant in North Beach, reflects the charm of San Francisco's Little Italy. Designed by Dante Giacosa and produced from 1957 to 1975, the 500 R was the final version of this iconic car—compact, practical, and full of character.

An Added Attraction to Our Wine Garden

Parked in our outdoor wine garden, the Fiat 500 R is a fun and interactive photo booth. Guests love to hop in or pose around it, adding a personal touch to their visit while enjoying our beautiful outdoor space. It's become a popular attraction that blends perfectly with Auto Vino's laid-back, inviting atmosphere.
See It Yourself

Experience it during Friday lunches from 12 to 1:30 PM or at our weekend wine tastings on Saturday and Sunday from 12 to 4 PM, and make the most of your time at Auto Vino.

Inge, our Guest Experience Director at Auto Vino Wine Garden, stands with two young visitors. Families like theirs often come to enjoy the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Mary, one of the children, wrote Inge a heartfelt note saying, “You make me feel like I’m at home.”

As they stroll through the garden, the aroma of wood-fired tri-tip, salmon, and Neapolitan pizza fills the air. Laughter and clinking glasses drift through the space, where friends and families gather to enjoy the moment. Adding to the charm, Auto Vino offers a diverse menu that caters to all tastes and serves wine made from locally grown Santa Cruz Mountain grapes produced here on-site.

Experience the warmth and flavor of Auto Vino for yourself. Whether it’s Friday happy hours, weekend lunches, or wine tastings, let Inge and her team make your visit unforgettable.

Chef Nick’s Latest Creation:
The Spicy Italian 🇮🇹 🔥 🍯

The pizza has bold flavors with spicy jalapeños, savory spicy Italian sausage, sweet red onions, and a drizzle of Mike’s Hot Honey. The perfect balance of heat and sweetness makes every bite unforgettable.

At its base is a classic Neapolitan-style dough with just four simple ingredients: flour, water, salt, and yeast. But Chef Nick takes it further, crafting a pizza that combines the sausage's richness, the jalapeños' bite, and the sweetness of the red onions and honey.

We recommend a glass of Zinfandel from the Santa Cruz Mountains for the perfect pairing. The cool climate and rich soils give the wine a complex balance of fruit, spice, and acidity, which enhances the pizza's bold flavors. The wine’s natural spice complements the sausage, while its acidity cuts through the richness, leaving your palate refreshed.

Join us for Friday lunch or our weekend wine tastings and experience the unforgettable combination of flavors in The Spicy Honey Inferno!

Chef Nic's latest creation is the Spicy Italian Sausage Pizza. It is a bold and fiery masterpiece that will excite your taste buds. The pizza is topped with perfectly seasoned spicy Italian sausage, fresh jalapeños, and thinly sliced red onions, bringing together a savory, spicy, and tangy combination that is both satisfying and unforgettable. The handcrafted dough is cooked in our 900-degree woodfire oven, giving it a perfect crispy, charred crust with a soft, chewy center.

Experience a whole new level of flavor by pairing our pizza with Woodside Vineyards Zinfandel. This wine is made from grapes grown in the Santa Cruz Mountains and expertly crafted at Auto Vino. The Zinfandel boasts juicy, ripe fruit notes such as blackberries, cherries, and a hint of pepper, which perfectly complement the spice of the sausage and jalapeños. Its natural acidity also helps cut through the richness of the cheese and sausage. The wine's peppery undertones beautifully harmonize with the heat from the jalapeños, creating a balanced, flavorful experience that enhances both the pizza and the wine.

Experience the perfect pairing of pizza and wine at Auto Vino during Friday lunch or our weekend wine tastings! 🍕🍷
