About Nevada City Winery
Nevada City Winery is named for Nevada City — the historic Gold Rush mining town in Nevada County that was California's third largest city during the 1850s Gold Rush, a time when the Sierra Nevada foothills were the most economically significant landscape in North America. The Spring Street winery in downtown Nevada City is one of the most authentically urban wine experiences in the Sierra Foothills: a production winery operating in the historic district of a Gold Rush city.
Established in 1980, Nevada City Winery is one of the Sierra Foothills' founding modern wine estates, producing Zinfandel, Barbera, Chardonnay, and Merlot from Nevada County and broader Sierra Foothills vineyard sources. The downtown Nevada City location puts the winery within walking distance of the Victorian architecture, restaurants, and historic buildings that make the town one of California's most distinctive gold country destinations.
