FRASINETTI WINERY was founded near Sacramento in 1897 by James Frasinetti, an Italian immigrant making Frasinetti the oldest family-owned and operated wine producer in the Sacramento area.
At its peak, Frasinetti Winery had planted 400 acres and shipped to the East Coast. It survived prohibition by selling table grapes and making Altar Wine. From expansion in the 1940’s, agricultural demise in the 1950’s, a boom in 1960’s, 1970’s saw grandsons, Howard and Gary, pursue changes to varietal wines produced with emphasis on Oak cooperage.
In 1985 they established a restaurant in the East Cellar for dining, banquets, and weddings. Quaint charm for special dinners, holiday meals, wine tasting and weddings, with an accent on making special moments memorable in a beautiful historic setting.

The authenic decor is my favorite part about this establishment. I bring my wife here for special occasions and we really enjoy it.

I had my wedding reception at Frasinetti, and it was perfect! My husband and I celebrate our anniversary there every year, and Howard remembers us each time. Wonderful hideaway for a romantic dinner.
