Sierra Vista Winery and Vineyards,started in 1972, is located in beautiful Placerville, CA. Our winery has spectacular vineyards and a charming hospitality center with views of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. We look forward to helping you plan your visit.
The comments about the friendliness of the
staff and founding family are absolutely true.
Let me add that John McCready has been a true
pioneer for growing Rhone style wines in the
Sierra Foothills. He made opened the way to
many other wineries near by. I particularly enjoy
the whites: Roussanne and Viognier (some
of the finest French whites come from the
Rhone valley), and among the reds, the
Fleur de Montagne (a Chateauneuf du Pape
style blend), the Red Rock Ridge Syrah,
and the Mourvedre.
Sierra Vista Winery is my favorite place to visit. The wines are always delightful & I am a loyal wine club member! Barbara & John host the best wine and food tasting events, & you always feel right at home. The view of the Sierra Mountains is spectacular!
We first got to Sierra Vista almost by accident. Being midwesterners, we were bedazzeled by the Napa Valley "mistique", BS, etc. One time, we got a late start towards the valley from our condo in Tahoe, and someone said "look at this, there are all these wineries around Placerville". We got off US- 50, and discovered one of the best kept secrets in California. Following the map provided by all the El Dorado wineries, we eventually found ourselves up at the end of Liesure Lane at Sierra Vista. We were greeted there by Enid who took us into their tasting room, which was in the warehouse with the barrels at that time, and treated us to a complete tasting and history of all their wines, as well as a splendid view of what graces their label. It was such a great difference from what we had experienced by our earlier visits to Napa, that we were hooked for life. We have been back every year since. Sometimes our schedule doesn't allow us time to visit all our favorite El Dorado/Amador County wineries, but Sierra Vista is never one that is marked off the list. All their wines are good, but their Fume Blanc is the best you will ever taste.\\jc
I am from Minnesota and every chance I get, I visit this vineyard. They were the very 1st vineyard of CA that I visited some 10 years ago! I was never treated so kindly - "Minnesota Nice" - well this was "Sierra Vista Nice". A top notch winery and I'm proud to say I've been a member of their wine club for at least 10 years!!
