Add this winery to your list of Apple Hill stops! Starfield Vineyards, located in Placerville, serves excellent wines and charcuterie plates, but where it really shines is the picturesque property on which it is located. You can easily spend at this Northern California winery.
We love a day spent wine tasting in Northern California! NorCal natives know that there are so many great little wine regions outside of Napa and Sonoma. Starfield Vineyards is one of many wineries in the Placerville and Camino area.
Compared to some of the major wineries you’ll find in Napa, owners of these smaller wineries typically take more creative freedoms with winemaking, as well as the aesthetics of the property, making each winery unique.
Starfield Vineyards is located at an elevation of 2,400– an atmosphere they compare to Aix-en-Provence in France.
From wine tastings on their Tasting Porch to lunch on their scenic Upper Patio to a picnic in the outdoor amphitheater, this winery has many places where you can sip and snack.
This nature trail leads guests through a 300-foot rose arbor that is stunning in both the day and evening.
Tastings are available from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and are available to anyone age 21 or older. The nature trail and outdoor amphitheater are for all ages but keep in mind that children must be with adults at all times while on the property.
Starfield Vineyards is located about an hour's drive from South Lake Tahoe and 45 minutes from Sacramento.
