Located in an elevated position on the Red Rock Ridge in the Sierra Foothills, the Sierra Vista Winery and Vineyards offer not only delectable fine wines but also wonderful mountain views which you can enjoy while picnicking in the shady grounds. The vineyards are planted on the mountain slopes, which offer a challenge for the vintners but seems to perfectly suit the vines, which produce several Rhone varietals. Visitors are welcome to come and sample the wines in the estate Tasting Room which is open daily (except for a few annual holidays) and are invited to bring along a picnic or join the Sierra Vista team at one of their regular wine events.
