About Sierra Vista Winery
Sierra Vista Winery is named for the mountain view — the Spanish vista del sierra, the panoramic view of the Sierra Nevada range that the high-elevation El Dorado County estate commands on clear days. John MacCready established Sierra Vista in 1977, making it one of the Sierra Foothills' most historically founding modern wine estates, producing wine from the same El Dorado County terrain for nearly five decades.
The Cabernet Way estate produces Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Rhône varieties from El Dorado County estate vineyard blocks at high elevation where the sierra vista — the mountain view — is a daily reminder of the appellation's extraordinary topographic position.
