We love wine tasting, and love to explore undiscovered (to us) wine regions and wineries. A year ago, while staying at the Imperial Hotel in Amador City, a local told us we had to check out Casino Mine Ranch. We did the next morning, and after an amazing three hour tasting, we were hooked and became members. We have since been back multiple times, and all family members and friends we bring agree that it's one of the best tasting experiences they've had.

The Simone and Grenache Noir are standouts and have quickly become my go-tos.
Beyond the wine, the experience of visiting is equally special. The winery sits on stunning grounds with sweeping views that make you want to linger, and the tasting room strikes the perfect balance of modern design and welcoming atmosphere.
