Gold Country Wineries

Nestled in the Sierra Nevada Foothills is the unique wine district of Gold Country. Wineries litter the historical Highway 49, and driving down it is said to bring you "back in time." You know you're in a great place if it's the site of the California Gold Rush! Cash in on some of that history by traveling down Highway 49 and sampling the distinct flavors of the region. Come to Gold Country wineries if you're really craving that old-time feeling. The majority of the area still looks stuck in gold rush times, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't produce sophisticated wines perfect for the modern-day wine enthusiast.
