Discover The Wineries

"As a small winery we can put more time, attention, and care into our wines (than the larger wineries can afford to, really). So in order to make wines of the highest quality, we: 1. Select vineyards that are farmed with the greatest level of care. 2. Focus on single varietal and single vineyard. Single vineyard allows us to focus on "the place" the grapes are farmed and single varietal will show how each varietal is affected by that place (i.e. soil and microclimate)."

"The End of Nowhere was founded on a simple belief: Great California wine doesn’t need chemical additives, new oak, or a big price tag to be delicious. Our founding winemaker, Chris Walsh, didn’t have this epiphany in a vineyard — he had it in a bar. After working as a sommelier in New York City, Chris was ready to trade long nights for a new career and realized his childhood home in Amador County was the perfect place."

"The Borjón family comes from the small town of Paracuaro in the state of Guanajuato, Mexico. Isy's parents, Jesus and Nora Borjón, arrived in the Shenandoah Valley over 30 years ago, with passion and drive they built Borjón Winery together, as a family."

"Leon and Shirley Sobon founded Shenandoah Vineyards in 1977. They were one of the first four wineries in Amador County's now well known Shenandoah Valley appellation. From the first offering of 1,200 cases, the winery has continued to thrive, adjusting the portfolio of wines over the years. It is now producing about 20,000 cases per year. Demand continues to grow as a result of skilled winemaking, marketing, and strong family commitments to quality and service. Today, we continue to use estate grown grapes from our sustainably-farmed vineyards."

"An artisan winery established in 1986 by winemaker Bill Easton and Jane O’Riordan, we make 30 different wines, most of them very small lots of 100-400 cases.

 Look for our wines in retail stores and restaurants around the country or visit us in beautiful Amador County."

"Using just 20 select acres for their own brand, the Derbys continue to sell the remainder of their 400 planted acres. The diversity of each vineyard is the core of Derby Wine Estates. In 2010, the Derbys purchased the historical Paso Robles Almond Growers Building and began rejuvenating it. In April of 2014 the building opened and is now home to our full production facility and Tasting Room. We offer tours of the building daily."
