    Hard to find pinots in this area! Super stoked to find a place that had lots of options. Sad that they didn't have a pinot flight. Definitely recommend having a pinot flight on the menu at all times. The outside isn't too much to write he about. They are near a Bistro and a creek. The cool feature is the modern ambience inside. The cave and lighting is awesome. I could definitely see hosting an event here. Recommend you stop in and see it for yourself. Lastly, the vegan wine tender was super friendly and helpful.

    A bottle of Barbera El Dorado by E16 and a Thank You Card... my trusty bamboo plant.

    About a year ago some friends and I came here for a private wine tasting. And it was awesome. So we became members. And have really enjoyed the wine. (Always be responsible with alcohol. And no drinking and driving.) Fast forward to now... and a lot has changed. I've moved offices and blah. And totally forgot that I had this wine membership, because of the frequency of which they ship out. Well they shipped me some bottles to my old office address. And needless to say UPS, E16, and I were not on the same page. But we fixed that and all is well. I'm giving these guys 5 stars because of how Kristin handled the whole shipping thing. How she didn't make any excuses... she just took care of things. And in this day and age of pointing the blame and fingers... it's nice to recognize someone for just being human and decent. It's not if mistakes will happen... it's when and how will you own them. So Kristin, thank you! Finally, if you in the area... go see them. The cave tasting room is awesome. The wines are awesome. And yes... if you join their membership and live out of the area...if they can legally ship to you they will. Just keep Kristin up to date with your addresses. I'm starving and need to eat! Earl

    Amazing antique bar - 1800s - from Milwaukee is now in the winery's cave. Fun seating area.

    Driving through Amador County on CA-124 and eventually the County Road E16, I was amazed to discover a thriving wine growing region with tasting rooms galore! We stopped at a nearby olive oil tasting room and tasted a few delicious oils before coming up to the brand new tasting room that just opened by E16 Wines. (In full disclosure, my cousin is the owner of E16 Wines.) The tasting room offers some of its locally-grown wines - the grenache blanc is a great one for hot summer days! But what makes this winery stand out is their selection of pinot noirs from California's best regions - Santa Lucia, Russian River, Anderson Valley, etc. These are elegant pinots that showcase California's best! Mick, the tasting room manager, was friendly as can be and knows Amador County wines very well. He was previously at Perry Creek Winery. The cave has an amazing antique bar and dining table and is available for private tastings and events. I can't wait to go back for more E16 wines - but also to visit the other wineries in this region.

    Elegance. Tranquility. If time could stop, I'd say it stops here the moment you walk through the doors of E16. The bright natural light, stunning bar, water backdrop and wines will have you smiling ear to ear. If you have the extra time book a wine cave tasting experience and relax in the utter luxury that is E16.

    We first visited E16 about a year ago with friends who are wine club members, and loved it so much we joined ourselves. We were excited to discover a winery in the area that offers such an amazing selection of Pinot Noir. The tasting room staff is wonderful; we always enjoy seeing Danielle & Kristen.

The wines are delicious. There isn't a bad wine I tried yet. They actually have some of the best wines in my opinion in the area. The tasting room is cute and cozy with plenty of seating and popcorn to much on as well. I I truly enjoy coming here and is one of my favorite wineries hands down.

We tried three different pizzas between us, the pepperoni, the gorgonzola with fig and the daily special, which was hawaiian, though we sub'd pepperoni for ham. We did a gluten free crust for two of them and it was, by far, the best gluten free crust I've had. It was still crispy on the bottom, just like a regular wood-fired pizza. Flavor-wise, the gorgonzola fig was everyone's favorite, by far. The fig, cheese and spicy arugula was just perfect. We held the walnuts. Tracy took care of us and we loved our tasting. Our designated driver was treated to an Arnold Palmer, much better than just his usual bottle of water. I thought their wines were pretty reasonably priced, even for non-members. You need to buy at least $60 worth of wine to waive the $15 tasting price - I appreciate that they put that right at the top of the menu so there's no guessing. The tasting was really generous with good pours so even if we hadn't bought wine I would have felt it was worth it. Tracy took great care of us, answering all our questions and keeping our water and wine glasses filled. It was a wonderful, relaxing day on the beautiful property.
