Auriga Wine Cellars, located in Placerville, El Dorado County, California Wine Country, offers a unique wine-tasting experience in the historic Sierra Foothills. Their wines are crafted from vineyards that once supplied the gold miners (49ers) with wine in the last century. The thin soils of the foothills force the vines to struggle, resulting in intensely concentrated wines that showcase the region’s terroir. Visitors to Auriga Wine Cellars can enjoy a dog-friendly atmosphere, making it a perfect destination for wine enthusiasts who want to share the experience with their furry companions.
The winery’s commitment to quality is evident in every sip, as guests savor the flavors of the Sierra Foothills in a picturesque setting. For more information and to plan your visit, you can reach Auriga Wine Cellars at (530) 647-8078 or visit their website on Facebook.
