Much to adore about Amador County wine

This beautiful, rolling county southeast of Sacramento is highly regarded both for its wines and historic towns like Sutter Creek and Plymouth that beg lingering. Six dog-friendly wineries on the Amador County Wine Trail are situated in or near Plymouth, in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley wine region.

In Sutter Creek, you’ll find about a dozen tasting rooms along Main Street, almost all of which welcome well behaved tail-waggers. Start with Baiocchi Wines and try to coordinate a visit to take in the bi-weekly music series offered on Sunday afternoons April through September.
