And it is a source of great pride to find our local, Greater Sacramento-Delta Bogle wines when we travel outside of California or USA. In fact, we were thrilled to enjoy a bottle in Shanghai, China! But we had never been to the Bogle Family Ranch and Vineyards outside of Clarksburg, CA. We finally reserved a couple of hours to visit the winery - and can't say enough good things! We enjoyed several, terrific wines not available in our local stores - such as their delicious Sparkling Rose! But more importantly, experienced a lovely afternoon on the BEAUTIFUL Bogle Family Ranch grounds! Everything around us was green and gorgeous; with cool breezes due to the surrounding water of the Sacramento River. The picnic tables were warm and inviting. The snacks were great (we brought a picnic lunch). And EVERY employee with which we spoke was excited to educate and inspire us - taking great pride in Bogle Family's six generations of Delta farming; sincere commitment to sustainability and the community; and vision of how the family plans to continue the winery's growth and international expansion, while maintaining its commitment to winemaking excellence. Every staff member that we met had been Bogle employees for over 10 years at least (a couple over 30!). I think it really says a lot about a company and family when their employees promote and compliment - even when the bosses are not in the room! While we had originally planned just a one-time visit to the Bogle vineyards, we left as Bogle Family Wine Club Members. And look forward to attending many Bogle events (including live music and movie nights), in the upcoming year. Well done and thanks for a great day, Bogle Family!

I was really looking forward to visiting Bogle Winery since I'd never been before and had heard…read moregreat things. The wine and property are lovely -- unfortunately the welcome at the door felt like an audition for "Most Judgmental Winery Greeter." When we walked in, the woman at the front greeted us with a slow head-to-toe scan before even saying hello. For context, we weren't exactly stumbling in from a river float -- Patagonia, designer black jeans, nice casual wine-country attire. My partner was dressed similarly. Completely normal for a winery visit. Since it was my first time there, I asked where we should go. She informed us -- while continuing the visual inspection -- that upstairs was reserved for more formally dressed guests with reservations. The upstairs area, by the way, was completely empty. She then told us we could "go help ourselves around the corner." The tone was less "welcome to wine country" and more "you appear to be beneath the staircase." Honestly, I've been to plenty of wineries, from casual tasting rooms to higher-end spots, and I've never been greeted with that level of instant judgment. It was oddly hostile for a place that literally sells a beverage meant for relaxing. The ironic part is that after getting past that moment, the rest of the experience was actually nice. The wine was good, the grounds are pretty, and the other staff we interacted with were perfectly pleasant. But that initial interaction? Brutal. If first impressions matter (and they do in hospitality), someone might want to let the front door know that sizing people up like a nightclub bouncer at 1am isn't exactly the warm, welcoming winery vibe most people are hoping for. Great wine. Beautiful place. One spectacularly toxic greeting.

We were greeted by friendly staff and a complimentary pour. Prior to visiting Heringer Estates, I noticed they offered a sweet flight which was a huge reason why I wanted to visit; however, it was not on the menu. Luckily for me they were able to accommodate me by making a custom flight. Our flight of tastings consisted of three pours: Moscato, Chardonnay, and a port. We even received a sample of their popular wine slushy. My friend and I both ordered the same tasting and we were very impressed with all of them. She especially liked the moscato, and I especially liked the chardonnay. Although, I really did enjoy all of them. The staff member seemed very knowledgeable and explained each one to us. I can't wait to come back for more! Especially on a warmer day to enjoy a wine slushy. If you enjoy going on walks, they have stairs that lead you to the levee. Their vineyard is only a twenty-minute drive from Sacramento. If you don't like crowds, I recommend going on a week day.

After striking out at a couple of other wineries, we stumbled across Elevation Ten, and we're so glad we did. Antonio and Courtney immediately made us feel welcome. Antonio poured us tastes of their Blanc de Blanc and Rosé to help us decide, and we ended up ordering a bottle of the Blanc de Blanc and one of their Strawberry Lemonade Spritzers. It was crisp, refreshing, and easily our favorite sparkling wine of the day. While we were tasting, Courtney took the time to answer some of my friend's questions about the winemaking process. We never felt rushed, and it was clear they were both passionate about what they do. Great wine is always a plus, but friendly, knowledgeable people make the experience even better. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back to visit Elevation Ten again. If you're a fan of sparkling wine, this winery is absolutely worth a stop.

The tasting room has a unique personality, with beautiful Tiffany-style stained glass lamps and intricate iron dragons created by Shawn Bayley. It gives the space a warm, inviting feel that's unlike most wineries. Karen took care of our tasting, and she was incredibly friendly and welcoming. She happily answered our questions about the winemaking process, made thoughtful recommendations, and never made us feel rushed. After tasting the Petit Syrah, Merlot, and Pinot Noir, we ended up ordering a bottle of the Pinot Noir to enjoy. The winery also has plenty of seating for both small and larger groups, along with private tasting rooms that can be reserved for events. Wine club members receive discounted rental rates, which is a nice added perk if you plan on visiting regularly. My partner and I have been watching House of the Dragon lately, and the atmosphere here definitely gave us those medieval, dragon-inspired vibes. Between the unique décor, welcoming hospitality, and excellent red wines, we'll definitely be back.

I can see why the regulars love this spot and we got a few bottles after our tasting!

Inside the Sugar Mill it's really cool, a little too chilly for us. On the other hand I bet this is the perfect place in the sweating Summer heat. They are located in the main Sugar Mill building. They also have a room for you to sit and enjoy your wine with family and friends. If you are looking for a restroom it's located to the left soon as you walk into the Sugar Mill. Parking isn't an issue when we arrived. There were plenty of parking in their private lot. It's a short walk from the parking lot to Rendezvous-vous Winery. If you are seeking more information check out their website. It is packed with so much information. Including a calendar of events. Rendez-vous Winery received Gold Award for the best wine bar and wine selection in Sacramento in 2025 and 2024. In 2016 Viognier, they won Best White Wine (Best of Show) in the entire state of CA at California State Fair Wine Competition in 2016. In 2017, they won best Riesling in the state. Very impressive. They are having a Wine, Port, and Chocolate Event February 14-15 from 11am-5pm. This sounds like a fabulous event. I love chocolate. And my husband loves wine so it's a perfect pairing. We're busy that weekend, but hopefully they will have more events like this. They also have a shop in midtown, which is so much more convenient for me, but lacks the ambiance that the Sugar Mill has. The sugar mill used to be an actual beet sugar mill. They are located in the first slot when you walk in the main entrance of the Sugar Mill. Such a quaint location. I love it.

Instead of driving all the way to Napa and spending a fortune on tastings, we decided to take a detour and take a drive along the river.

The tastings are generous, and they happily accommodate the tastings to your specific preferences. If you're interested in an incredible and affordable experience, this is the place for you.

We didn't know what to expect, but we were quickly greeted as soon we walked in and taken to the patio. I made reservations but we arrived a bit early and they accommodated us. We did come to try the wine but we were starving as we took advantage of the fact that they have a restaurant there and ordered the burger and the pastrami sandwich. I think I've said it before but I will never ever NOT get the burger if I see it on the menu. For our wine, the better half got the chocolate pairing flight and i got a flight that consisted of the pomegranate sparkling wine which was so refreshing in that heat, the chard, and their Petite Syrah. Her pairing came with a flight of 5 and 5 chocolates (fudge) and we've never done a chocolate pairing before so this was a fun and palate opening experience. All were delicious, if I weren't so far I'd totally join their wine club. There was a live musician which gave the whole place a cool vibe. The only thing that wasn't cool was that weather but thank goodness we were seated under a fan and a covering that had misters!!! What a great touch. The grounds were well manicured but we didn't walk around much due to the heat. And the price is so reasonable, my flight was only $10 and hers was $18. The food was in the $25 or so ballpark. This awesome experience for under $100 is such a deal.

One minor thing was we had to wait a little bit for our check but the server was super nice and I understand he was just a little busy so we'll let that slide.

Chad was a great host and very knowledgeable about all of the wines that he poured for us and we got to sample several of them off the list!
