Another dog friendly winery as long as the dog is outside. They also have food so you are not allowed to bring outside food to the outdoor area. They do come out to serve you for your tasting if you are staying outside. Love the view here and is perfect for spring weather. read more

I love a good winery, and I especially love one where the vintner's are present and engaging. Andy, the owner of Andis winery is the sweetest. He has an amazing compliment of staff, not to mention a beautiful property that he wants each and every visitor to enjoy. I first discovered Andis Winery years ago, when they used to host an annual crab feed at the Milagro center in Sacramento. I definitely miss those days! I do love the drive up to the Sierra foothills. It's about an hour and change out Of Sacramento, and driving through the beautiful countryside to get to what feels like the rainbow on the other side is definitely worth the drive. Yes, there are other wineries in the area, but this is definitely a must try. The winery will host various events, including winetasting, music, food, events, and even private events. The seating outside is comfortable and lovely, and it's definitely worth going with your besties like I do, to enjoy the wine, the scenery, and of course the company. This is probably one of the few wineries that I've been to where the staff really sticks. I enjoy going in at different times of the year, seeing familiar faces, and having everyone remember me. It just makes the experience super special. They have a wine club that is absolutely worth joining, and for a period of time I was a member, and the deals they offer are pretty phenomenal. Definitely worth visiting because you'll wanna go back time and time again. read more

My wife and I finally got the chance to try this winery, and we were glad we did. The facility is beautiful and the location provides panoramic views that are spectacular. Service was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The wine is an excellent representation of the region and is priced appropriately for the quality represented. We did not try the food menu, but we intend on returning and giving it a try on the expansive patio while taking in the views. Cheers! read more

Love this winery. My husband and I had a 12:30pm reservation on a Saturday. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted and had the option to either sit inside or their outdoor seating area. We of course decided to sit outdoors and take in that beautiful view of the hills, vineyard and the warm sun. Jane assisted us and guided us through the tasting. She was so sweet and just amazing. Our $15 per person tasting was waived since we decided to purchase a bottle of the Sauvignon blanc and one of their reds. Bottles at fairly reasonable. Roughly $25-40, depending on which on you want. read more

This winery was completely different from the other 2 wineries we visited in the area. It was modern and industrial-like. I liked that this winery served food. I would have ordered food if I hadn't gotten food from a food truck prior to our stop here. We wished they had dessert though. They sell some pricy chocolates. I purchased the English toffee which was really good. The tasting was $15 pp. The tasting fee is waived pp per bottle purchased. I liked almost every one of the wines on the tasting list. We purchased the 2021 Harvest Widow White. Our server was friendly and informative. read more

This has been a favorite place of ours since we first visited in 2015! Such a sleek modern and comfortable place to enjoy amazing wines with a scenic view. We brought an aunt from Tennessee to visit Sunday while they did their oysters and wine event! One of the best experiences she said! We lucked out with perfect weather. the staff have always been and continue to be so warm and kind and hospitable. You can't ask for better service. We enjoyed that they had a special light wine flight which paired beautifully with the oysters which were DELICIOUS! We also ordered the charcuterie board! That Barely Buzzed Lavender Espresso cheese was phenomenal. Can't wait to go back again. read more

$20 Tasting. 7 wine pours (2 are white) and snacks! 4 different flatbreads w/toppings, all were tasty! Also a little bit of cheese & jam. Staff were all really nice and knowledgeable! No reservation was necessary. My favorite experience in the area by far. Nice venue, classy, clean, nice fire pits as well as indoor seating. Best value, most fun! read more

Andis winery is a beautiful spot to stop and enjoy their very special wines. The service is excellent and I would highly recommend this foothill winery. read more

We were about to have dinner at Taste Restaurant and having pre-dinner happy hour and snacks at The Rest hotel in Plymouth. Very quaint room with just a few tables. Andis wines were being featured by a representative of the winery. The wines he came around and poured were quite nice and certainly worthy of exploring at their wine tasting room. Here's the thing though. There were perhaps two or three other tables, and this one gentleman pouring wine tastes. After a few different samples, we asked our representative if he would mind taking our picture as we were enjoying company with another couple from Idaho. I offered him my phone, with the camera app already engaged. He stopped me and stated he was too busy to take our photo. Our request for a 5-second picture was denied! In years and years of having asked other people in special situations to simply snap a photo of us I have literally never been denied this request. Me and our guests were amazed at this. If this gentleman is a reflection of.Andis winery service, that is one Winery I will not be visiting. read more

By far one of my favorite wineries. The view is incredible. The day we went they had BBQ you could purchase. Wasn't so hot on that, as you couldn't just buy a plate you had to buy an entire Tri tip. Regardless, a gorgeous day at the winery. read more

Nice winery located off Shenendoah Road. You can't miss this one perfectly perched perched uphill with bright red flags inviting you to come in for a taste. The entrance is beautiful and very spacious filled with wines and snacks for purchase as you taste. We made reservations and were sat outside in really comfy furniture. It was a warm day but the tables had umbrellas. We were presented with a menu and little card where you could check the boxed for the wines you wanted to try. Your glasses were then brought out all at once like a flight which was really nice because we could taste at our leisure. There were snacks inside available to purchase but they did also have a food truck onsite which was pretty cool. The grounds are large and so pretty to enjoy. They have so much seating so you will be well taken care of as a pair or a large party. The staff is so friendly and very knowledgeable about their wines. Don't skip this one next time you're ready for a tasting. read more

Dog friendly, but outdoor only. They had a "drive thru" type window your able to sit at an taste while your pet is outside. They brought out a dog bowl of water for our dog, so thoughtful. Wines were great, I enjoyed them even some white. As I'm usually red only. It was a hot day but we were shaded the whole time, very pleasant. read more

Beautiful grounds but borderline racist employees. My wife is mixed and the amount that everyone's demeanor changes when she walks in is so painfully obvious. The blonde woman at the front glared at my wife and spoke about the wine as if she was talking to a child, pronouncing "tannins" slowly. The woman helping with checkout also was all smiles with everyone but spoke to us flatly and made us feel like we were wasting her time. The energy shift in the room is so blatant and obvious, we will not be returning. That being said, the tall gentleman that works the front tastings is knowledgeable and welcoming. We appreciated him. read more

I was lucky in the sense that my "coming of age" for drinking wine was pretty heavily saturated with Andis wine. You see, my dad has been a wine club member and when I started to drink more wine, he generously brought me along to the Andis wine club pick up parties in Honolulu, where we live. I got to try all the wines included in the pick up for that quarter and I even got to meet Andy and Janis, the owners of the winery. I had been to Napa and Sonoma before, but my dad had been to Amador County a handful of times and recommended it. On my most recent trip to California, we stopped at Andis winery on our way to Murphy's, and it was one of the most unique wineries I have been to. I highly recommend stopping here if you're in the area. There are quite a few other wineries in Amador, but Andis is unique in that it is very modern. The architecture is new and exciting; it's also very instagrammable. You can have a picnic outside with a chilled rose or semillon and they are currently building an extra structure just for outdoor events. The two people working the tastings were friendly and informative. We mentioned we were heading to Murphy's and received some really great suggestions. We tried some of the wines, bought a bottle and enjoyed it outside. Andy even came by to say hello! It was a really great experience and now at the pick up parties in Honolulu, I can say that I've been to the winery :) read more

Beautiful area, great wine and yummy farm to table season changing flavor flatbreads. Relaxing, friendly winery and enjoyable.

For my birthday weekend, my husband and I made our way out to Amador county to do some winetasting. We made a reservation at Andis winery mostly because they were dog friendly and we were bringing our two great Pyrenees puppies. The staff were very kind and very understanding that we had puppies with us. They made our very first wine tasting experience with dogs an enjoyable one. But enough about the dogs and more about the wine - we both thoroughly enjoyed our flights of wine and the nice variety that they offered. Paired with food from Capitol Brasserie, it was the perfect birthday afternoon. I would highly recommend stopping at Andis wine if you find yourself in Amador county, and if you happen to have furry friends with you. read more

Great wines, friendly people and spacious outdoor area. We came on a Saturday afternoon, we did make reservations in advance since we had a party of 7 and it's still covid times. Once we arrived they seated us immediately, they do have a max 6 people per table policy but they were able to seat our 2 groups near each other. We each got a wine tasting, but if you buy a bottle they waive the tasting fee. We ended up buying 5 bottles! Their barbera was delicious, my favorite. The Zinfandel and rose were both very good too. The only downside was that it was chilly on the January afternoon we visited. They said they are expecting to get their outdoor heaters the following weekend. Can't fault them for having to quickly acclimate to the county ordinances. I will definitely be back next time I am up in Amador! read more

We visited with a reservation during a rain storm so didnt get to walk the grounds but the tasting room was a fun modern industrial kind of vibe. We were greeted and checked in right away by a hostess. We had to adjust our reservation from 5 to 4, with 3 actually tasting as our 4th was our wonderful DD for the day. I watched the hostess update this info in the computer. I also reminded her that we were celebrating a birthday, which was indicated on the reservation when it was made. Once seated, we were given tasting slips to mark which wines we each wanted in our flight, so we went through the wine menu and made our selections while our DD chose a cheese and cracker platter which had to be ordered by choosing the cheese and then choosing the crackers. Each priced separately. Our wine attendant didnt ask us or offer any explanations on the wine or winery. We got our wine flights, and then our visit went down hill. Our wine attendant didnt give us further explanation on the wines even then, in fact, he left the tasting room and didnt return for the rest of our stay. We were one grpup of only 3 groups and it was 230pm so we should have had no problem with having a wine attendant for our visit, but that wasnt the case. Our group was effectively completely ignored for 45 min. We attempted several times to signal other attendants to get our questions about the wines answered, but with no luck. We finally were just done and getting up to leave when a different attendant made notice of us and simply said the hostess that checked us in would check us out. We get to the register, and were told to waive the wine tasting fee of $15 each, we would need to purchase 4 bottles of wine. It was immediately pointed out to her again that we only had 3 persons tasting, our 4th person was our DD. Once that was corrected, 2 of of our party chose a wine to purchase. The hostess then told us that if we didnt buy at least enough bottles of wine to cover the 3 tasters we would still be charged the full $15 x 3 tasting fee. So we ended up purchasing 3 bottles of wine. To say the least, this visit was a huge let down. And to top it off, our birthday person was never even acknowledged. Thank goodness we had two other outstanding wineries to visit in our birthday celebration that day. So a soggy, windy day was still loads of birthday fun despite the failure at Andis Winery. read more

We recently hosted a birthday party at Andis Winery and were so pleased with the entire event. First of all, Andis has a great facility for an event like this. They have a separate building that you can rent with big sliding glass doors on all sides. You can have these open or closed depending on what you want. We left them open through most of our event. This lets people get outside and enjoy the beautiful setting and also play some games like bocce ball. You can stream music through their audio system and they have a TV you can show videos or photos on. And the setup is all done so that it's easy for you to bring in stuff for your event. Your caterer can easily deliver stuff to the facility, etc. All very well thought out. Next, the people at Andis are very easy to work with and quite accommodating. They were a pleasure through the entire experience. They setup the facility exactly the way we needed. They were flexible on the timing of the event and the catering (we changed our mind on the catering service after signing the contract for the event - they were good on all of that). The service they provided during the event was fantastic. So nice and professional. Everything handled just right. Finally, it's just a great overall venue. The wine is good and they will open any wine they sell for you during the event. The grounds are beautiful. We did our event late afternoon and everyone was able to watch sunset during the event. After the sun went down there was a beautiful glow that made for some great pictures. Everyone enjoyed the event. Some traveled in from far away and stayed over at one of the great boutique hotels in the area. A number of folks spent time in Sutter Creek earlier in the day. Just a great overall experience. Glad that we hosted our event at Andis. read more

Very good wine. Service was great. Great view and patio to sit out on. They have fire pits and heaters for colder days.

Fairly average wine. Grossly overpriced!! Don't plan to return. There are tons of other wineries with better wines and much lower prices. I can't afford to pay $50 for a bottle of wine. read more

Visited Andis on July 5th. Beautiful estate with excellent wines - thoroughly enjoyed their Painted Fields white and red. Lorenzo and team are extremely passionate about what they do. I've visited wineries around the world (Porto, Tuscany, etc) and Andis genuinely cares about educating people about wine. Can't wait to visit again. It was our first stop for a day of wine tasting and every winery afterwards did not match the bar Andis set for a tasting experience. read more

Made a res and came here for a tasting on a Sat - it was pretty busy! I usually don't care for white wines but really enjoyed their Sauv Blanc. We bought two bottles and didn't notice until we got home but they didn't come with any labels - weird haha. Anyway, we got a tasting outdoors and it was pretty nice! read more

Visited Andis yesterday 6/13/2020, on their 1st day reopening from COVID19 closures. Andis did a great job making patrons feel safe during their visit. All employees were wearing masks and all tables, chairs were sanitized between each patron. The outdoor tables were well-spaced to keep social distancing measures. Hand sanitizers were visible throughout the facility - from the tasting room, cash register, and bathroom. Rebecca was our host - she was so friendly and accommodating! She made sure to get an umbrella for our table so that we could sit and sip comfortably. Reservations are required for tastings and I believe are limited to 6 people in a group, for now - go on their website to do this. Overall, I think they did a wonderful job on their first day back! We had an amazing day at Andis! Can't wait to go back already! Oh...brought home a couple bottles - I enjoyed their Semillon and Barbera. Was considering the Rose, but didn't pick it up this time. Gives me an excuse to make a return visit! read more

First trip to Sierra Foothills wine country and first stop was Andis. It was the best winery of the trip. They've done a great job with the Covid pivot and now serve appetizers outdoors on a shaded patio. The service was great, the wines were elegant and high quality and the food was surprisingly good. We had the oysters, pate compagne and the salmon gravlax bruschettas, which were excellent with the Cuvee blanc and the rose, as well as charcuterie and peaches with burrata. We also appreciated that they brought out the bottle order in an ice bucket. Started with wine flights and then picked our favorite for a bottle order. The only thing missing was storytelling. I wish that someone would have talked about how the winery started, what their philosophy is and who the chef is. read more

Top notch winery going for the best product. We came from Honolulu because we won a tasting and tour of the winery at a silent auction. It was an hour's drive for us since we were staying with friends in Sacramento. Beautiful countryside and car ride. We should have planned a picnic but there's always next time. We were given a tour by the winemaker Mark McKenna. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about his craft and his product. We took the wine tasting flight before touring the facility. I learned a lot. read more

First time visiting up in Plymouth. It's a bit far drive but once you get out there you can choose to visit many Wineries. The one we stopped at was ANDIS :) LOVE At First SIP!!!! Barbera was WOW !!! will return soon did not have a chance to sit and sip but the annual LUAU was a Blast of Paradise Mahalo Andis read more

When you are at Andis, you are within stumbling distance of a number of great places, and Andis is among them. First, and this is important to me, the folks that work here are friendly. I'm not big fan of the employees not making you feel comfortable about the dumb questions that you have to ask, and you need to feel great about doing so. The folks that work here listened, answered questions, and continued to allow for a quality sampling. Second, if you buy the 1-liter bottle, you can bring it back and get it refilled at a nice price. On my visit on Saturday they were refilling it with 2013 Petite Sirah, and who am I to not want to taste more of it when I get home later. If I was a local it would cost $10 for the refill, but I'm not, and so I paid $15, seemed fair to me. Third, the wine is good. Do they have the notoriety of some of their neighbors? No, they've not gotten their picture on the cover of Wine Spectator. No, they're not charging $15 to taste three wines. No, they're not at all pretentious. The wine tastes good, and you'll find something that you like. Fourth, it's a family owned operation. It's not a big giant corporate outfit interested in being everywhere for everyone. In fact, I've never seen their wine in a store, and i do enjoy many big corporate wines, so this may not be an important factor, but it does allow me to add a 'fourth' to my list. Fifth, it is a beautiful place, planted up on a hill overlooking vineyards, and when you go in November the leaves on the vines are changing color. It was truly spectacular, and I'm not digging here just to add a 'fifth'. They've got a bocce ball court, beautiful flags flapping about, and nice outside seating on the knoll. I was invited to a bbq on the property, and I vaguely remember the promise of a whole roasted pig, but I can't comment since I didn't make the event. Nice people, good wine, a family operation and a beautiful facility all add up to a stop worth the time. Heck, tell them I sent you, maybe they'll give me the local price for the refill on my next visit.... read more

Andis Winery is a breathtaking winery in the heart of Amador County. A stunning facility with breathtaking views, and unparalleled hospitality (the owner, Janis, is one of the loviest people I have ever met) While we enjoyed all of their reds, we particularly loved their Old Vine Zin and Painted Fields (a blend of Barbera, Primitivo, Malbec, Petite Syrah and Cab Sav). Highly recommend! read more

What an amazing afternoon we had at Andis Winery! Typically when wine tasting, I only really like one or two of the wines in a wine tasting flight. But at Andis, we tasted 7 different wines and I must say I loved 6 of them and liked 1. How can that be? My tops favorites were the Semillon and Cabernet Franc. We brought home 5 bottles. The tasting bar room has wide open windows that allow you to fully enjoy the view of the vineyards. In addition, there is ample seating outdoors to enjoy your wine with a picnic. The hospitality is second to none. We will definitely be back! read more

Wow. Loved my visit to Andis. The grounds were totally gorgeous and perfect for a group. We had kids with us and there was space to let them enjoy snacks and stuff. The wine was very enjoyable too!

It was absolutely a must visit and we will certainly be back. read more

We bought tickets for the ANDIS WINERY Crab Feed, and later learned that they moved the event to the Amador County Fairgrounds. Huge disappointment. The Venue was not at the location that we originally purchased. They made it seem like there were only 60 tickets left and selling out fast. We wanted to go to the event at the winery, not some old building at the fairgrounds.. The post said the following "Event tickets included 3 bottles of wine for every table of 10," well, when we got there, there were three long tables that sat about 50 people each, and AT the MOST had 6-8 bottles of wine. For $80 a person, this by far was the most expensive and least memorable event I have ever attended. Their crab was good, (provided by Rudy's Hideaway) but the pasta was mediocre at best. All this was topped off by some cheap Hawaiian sweet rolls, that was likely $2 a dozen... Their silent auction (8-10 items) were just bottles of wine, or a private tour of the winery, and that was it!. Our table mates on each side, also thought that it was NOT worth the $80 per person. Crazy, they could have done so much more.. read more

We've been to Amador numerous times and are working our way around the area to try all of the wineries... We have driven by Andi sooo many times but hadnt gotten the chance to stop, that is, until yesterday.... and I'll be honest, we've driven by because it just looks so fancy and snobby but once we walked in we found out that wasnt a case. The staff was very friendly, the wine was good. I really likes the Grenache, it was really good and had such a unique flavor that I cannot describe. We were impressed with the friendliness, the quality wine and their parties sounded so much fun that we decided to become members... both myself and my husband as well as my brother. We purchased tickets to their BBQ next weekend as well and are looking forward to it! read more
