“What an establishment. one could not go wrong stopping here. The food was to die for, the wines were DELISH. There is a wine for everybody even the non drinkers have coffee and different refreshments. VIEW IS SPECTACULAR… nestled in the hills of Amador county. Lanelle was our host and was EXTREMELY versed in all product knowledge and went the extra mile to ensure the experience was a blast. The whole staff made the LA Mesa Vineyard experience spectacular.“

“Beautiful location and delicious wines.“

“Beautiful Vinyard 😍 Dewey is the best, he allowed me to go on the private land to see the most beautiful Sunset I've ever seen.“

“A wonderful, small winery with a tasting room in Sutter Creek. They have an interesting collection of wines with some varietals that don't get much attention in California (Picpoul, Nero D'Avola, Tannat). One of the owners holds down the fort in the tasting room and he shares a lot of great insight into their wines and winemaking process. Oh, and the bottle prices are very reasonable!“

“With a friend in town visiting, my husband, friend, and I made our way to Vino Noceto upon the recommendation from another winery we had tasted at.

The wines are of the Italian varietal, and several of them were new to us. We enjoyed the space and how pleasant the servers were. They took the time to educate us on the wines, but in a laid-back manner that was not pretentious or presumptuous.

They have ample outdoor seating with plenty of shade and umbrellas. There is plenty of parking and they are dog friendly.“

“We were staying at the Sutter Creek Hotel for our anniversary. Went on a walk and found this place. The experience was so nice. Kristy really new her stuff and made the time so enjoyable. The wine was amazing. Fun cute little place. Will be back for sure.“

“What an experience today at Story! David and Joey gave us a phenomenal experience from the moment my family and I walked in the door to the moment we left and not only did we experience amazing and unique wines but we were blown away by the food! Teleported to Georgia and were given a taste of the history and background of their home and the culture . 10/10 recommend and cannot wait to be back! The views were breathtaking and we love their dog , Simba! Thank you for making us fall in love with an experience, David and Joey! You two are an incredible Father/Son duo . We will be back on Thursday“

“We have been long-time fans of this winery, but our most recent visit for our anniversary (it's been over a decade since we've been!) was so, so lovely. Hayley was so engaging and generous, the newer wines in our tasting were INCREDIBLE (hello, white Barbera!), and the grounds, as always, were beautiful. Go get you some wine here. It's iconic!“

“Franklin is a real gold-country gem. He is so knowledgeable and fun, I wish he was at every tasting room I visit. The vine was devine. The 04 Carneros Chard was a real surprise. If you ever wanted a white that taste like a red, this is the one. Don't skip this adorable spot, unless its Frank's day off“

“Great hospitality and signature Zinfandel wines! Great views, wonderful landscape and owners that care about your experience.“

“Always fun, always great wine and great food and great staff.“

“The vibe here is laid-back, welcoming, and just what you want from a wine country escape. The wines are seriously delicious—smooth, bold, and super well-crafted. You can tell they pour a lot of passion into what they do. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the car-themed setting is perfect for relaxing with friends or just enjoying the views with a great glass of wine in hand.

If you're into great wine, good people, and an atmosphere that feels like a hidden treasure, Driven Cellars is the spot. Already planning my next visit!“

“We measure all other wines by the wines at Cooper. We love the Barbera, the Primitivo, the Grenache and the Grand Viognier.“

“A practically perfect place to go wine tasting! Mark and Marget were amazing…made us feel like we were just guests sipping drinks with them on the patio. I loved everything we tasted, and the bonus was this great siblings pic that Mark took for us!“

“My boyfriend and I had the most incredible time on Saturday ! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and breathtaking vineyard views. The ambiance was perfect for my Mini Birthday getaway—cozy, scenic, and peaceful.

The wine tasting was a dream! Every pour was thoughtfully curated, and the staff was so knowledgeable, sharing interesting stories about the wines and their origins. We especially loved the Barbera—it was smooth, rich, and absolutely delicious! The cheese pairing is a MUST!

We also enjoyed a beautiful walk through the vineyard, taking in the stunning scenery and soaking up the relaxing atmosphere. It was the perfect setting for a special date, and we’ll definitely be reminiscing about this experience for a long time.

If you’re looking for a charming, romantic, and unforgettable winery visit, I highly recommend Belledor Winery! We can’t wait to come back. 🍷❤️“

“Sera Fina Cellars is such an unexpected delight. We had no idea there were wineries so close to Sacramento. It is just a beautiful hour and a half drive away. The owner was so friendly and greeted us right away. He brought us such delicious wines to taste while enjoying our picnic lunch. I highly recommend the Barbera. A red wine that has all the full body flavors one would want in a red wine but none of the bitter flavors. All of the wines were ones I'd love to have at my table. Also bonus they have ciders as well.“

“This new place is awesome. The staff is great. Great wines too. They do have food but didn’t try as I was not hungry then. But the food looks good too. I recommend this place to anyone. And they have a great hang out area and view outside.“

“We visited Mirador Winery after a delightful wine tasting at Shadow Ranch, where our server highly recommended this gem. I'm so glad we took the advice!

From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the owners, Ana Maria and Carey. This lovely couple is truly passionate about their craft, and it shows in every aspect of their winery. They took the time to share their story and the inspiration behind their wines, which made our experience even more special.

Their selection of wines was impressive, showcasing a range of flavors that highlighted the quality of their grapes and the care that goes into each bottle.
If you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping by to sample their exceptional wines and meet the wonderful people behind them. You won’t be disappointed!“

“A few years ago I visited Rob’s quaint tasking room in downtown Amador City and fell in love with his wines. Rob’s passion for his wines shines through in each and every bottle. They are all delicious. So I went back a few weeks ago and picked up two cases with a mix of Rose, Cab, S&M, Chardonnay , and Sauvignon Blanc for my mom’s 70th bday party in the Bay Area. The wines where a hit. Thank you Rob for helping us select the best wines to go with our menu options. Hope to see you again soon.“

“This was recommended for us to visit and I’m so glad!! Great vibe, great people and good wine!“

“Beautiful winery & great tasting wines“

“Me and another car pulled over after seeing two dogs on highway 49 their owners found us and the dogs on highway 49 and then said thank you and asked us if we wanted a bottle of wine. I followed then to their vineyard and got a free bottle of wine i appreciate the kind gesture i didn't catch the couples names but after a long work day this bottle of wine will be perfect“

“had a wonderful visit Andrew was so sweet and very knowledgeable. thanks very much“

“Greatest Halloween party ever“

“As locals, Casino Mine Ranch has become one of our absolute favorite spots, and every time we have friends or family visiting, it's at the top of our list to share with them. It's the kind of place that makes you proud to bring guests.

The quality of the wine is outstanding. Each tasting is thoughtful and beautifully balanced, reflecting both the land and the care that goes into the winemaking.

What really sets Casino Mine apart is the hospitality. Every visit feels warm and personal. Servers make you feel known and welcome, sharing the rich history and stories of the ranch in such an engaging way. It never feels rushed, just genuinely inviting.

The tasting room and grounds are stunning, with an inviting atmosphere that encourages you to slow down and savor the moment with family and friends.
We can't recommend it highly enough.“

“It was great I was helped by the third generation son who is very knowledgeable about his products and what paired with what was very helpful actually probably a little too helpful I've got one wine now to taste with just about anything I'd want to eat which is okay. It's expanding my knowledge about good food and drink definitely worth the stop Shenandoah Vineyards part of the sabon family.“

“We were recommended this tasting room by a friend at TDO, which is closing. Tom the wine maker was in the tasting room. Him and his were very cordial. Nice tasting room and even a tent outside. We arrived 30 mins before they closed, but said it was no problem. Everything was delicious and reasonably priced. We will be back in October and probably join their club.“

“First time there today and we were met by the owner. Great wines and she described all her wines and shared her story. It was so personal and NOT corporate sounding... We bought a glass to enjoy with our lunch and it was very difficult choosing which one we wanted!!! A must visit for sure!!!“

“We make an annual visit to Amador County for a refresh of our CA wines and had never been to Andis. We both loved the setting, the wines and the staff. The wines are true to style, not sweet and all very good. Left with a case and they will now be part of our regular rotation of favorite wineries during our visit. We wish we would had tried them on previous visits but better late than never. Make sure to visit Andis, you won't be disappointed.“

“We just checked out their new location/tasting room for their grand opening and it was a hit! Love the covered patio and tons of seating out on the ground too. Excellent idea to combine with Amador flower farm!

Of course, we come for the wine and their Sparkling wines and Ports are some of the best! The peach mango sparkling wine was delicious!! A++“

“The owners are amazing and always a great time!!“

“Great white wines and friendly and informative staff. Definitely going back again.“
