Amador County Recommendations

jmdavidson1 thought this was worth mentioning said Thu, Oct 18th 2018 at 10:29pm ET

This is a shout out to the 2018 RPM folks that went to Amador County and to those that have been there. We will be going there in 2019, most likely for three days and two nights. Any recommendations on wineries to hit? And if so, which ones and why you think we should go there. Thank you in advance for your recommendations.

Acquiesce is a must. Unfortunately Sue has sold out of some of her selections. Be sure to mention the tour; we got an amazing welcome there.

McCay Cellars in Lodi as well. They just kept opening more and more bottles for us. Good stuff, we bought two cases of futures as well.

Might want to consider C.G. di Arie as well. We didn’t visit on tour, but I’ve been there and Chaim does some interesting stuff. WD has had them on woot as well.
@winedavid49 should bring him back her too.

  Is Lodi in Amador county? I am confused, thought there was some separation and that’s why rpm wanted to break up the tour into 2 parts so there could be a travel day between?

Charles Mitchell, Oakstone, Sobon, MV. Toogood is fun to barrel taste back in their cave.

Turley and Scott Harvey are next to each other, both fantastic. Vino Noceto is a must. And I thought Amador Cellars was an unexpected gem. Cooper Vineyards was great. Bella Grace too!

Pay attention to the itinerary Rob will send you. Not a clunker in the bunch. If you like earthy wines, Domaine de la Terre Rouge is a must. The Easton Zins there were also delicious.
