I enjoyed our visit to the Rombauer Vineyards in the Sierra Foothills on this rainy day today. We were impressed by the whole experience.

The grounds are beautiful, including vineyards rolling across gentle slopes with mountains framing the backdrop, with trees, flowers, and both covered and uncovered seating and tables surrounding the tasting room, creating an ambiance of rustic elegance and a place to shelter from the rain.

We were warmly welcomed by the friendly and knowledgeable staff who were happy to answer our questions and suggest tasting of the varieties of wine they produce. As we tasted the selection, I found the wine to be excellent across the board.

By the end of our visit to Rombauer Vineyards, I felt not only that I had tasted some truly great wine in a gorgeous setting, but also that I had received genuine hospitality from a staff that cares deeply about the wine they make. I very much look forward to returning to these beautiful grounds to further explore their offerings! From the scenery to the wine itself and especially the friendly faces, Rombauer gives you an outstanding winery experience!

“The Joy of Wine” is quite fitting.” Our intro to good wine began with a 40th anniversary trip to Amador wine country and Napa Valley.

We visited Rombauer in the Sierra Foothills in May 2024 and absorbed the beauty and serenity while sipping a couple of wines at the walk-up window. The staff was accommodating and knowledgeable. The Chardonnay was exceptional.

Since then, we learned that Rombauer is Certified California Sustainable, NAPA Green, and Fish Friendly. After another trip in August to NOTL, we upgraded to purchase only those wines that are exclusively Sustainable, Organic, or Biodynamic.

This summer we were delighted to find Rombauer Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc at our local supermarket and Total Wine store. The Chardonnay is oak aged, buttery and delightful. The Sauvignon Blanc is fruity, sweet, and refreshing.

The Rombauer Merlot and Zinfandel are also carried by our local Total Wine and are on our shopping list. We look forward to enjoying them as well. We may need to join the wine club soon!

Cheers to Rombauer!

10/10 recommend checking our Rombauer! Just signed up for the wine club to continue to enjoy the wine. The late harvest Chardonnay is amazing and I highly recommend picking up a bottle of the Joy port as well. Rachael is amazing! She helped us out and was so friendly and kind.

The wonderful thing about the small local Amador vineyards is you often meet the owners / winemakers while tasting their wines at a reasonable price that is comp'd if / when you purchase a bottle.
Rombauer is neither cost friendly or tasting friendly - it's a corporate approach that doesn't fit in well in the neighborhood. I recommend turning left just before their driveway (Upton Road) and exploring Bella Grace at the top of the hill for great wines as well as amazing local olive oils and vinegars. Fabulous people too!

We're NEVER disappointed with our visits to Rombauer winery. This was our first time at Sierra Foothills location. Eddie G. Was AMAZING! He's friendly and a Somileir . He gave us tips on the ideal wine temperatures and cheese pairings. He even does virtual tasting events. We had a 5* experience today and will definitely be back!

We enjoyed a very pleasant tasting here in May 2024 sitting outside in the shade. The wine was excellent and the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. What a fun time!

Highly recommended.

The wine is always phenomenal and I love that I can bring my own charcuterie and my dog.
