OGP Weekend Tix

The Original Grandpère Vineyard, also known as Vineyard 1869, is the oldest documented Zinfandel vineyard in America dating back to the 1860's. In 2016, the California State Fair named it Vineyard of the Year. Still in production today, only four wineries are privileged enough to receive fruit from this vineyard. Three of them are here in Amador County; Andis Wines, Scott Harvey Wines, and Vino Noceto.

Over the course of four days, guests to Amador County will have a chance to taste, sip, and explore this heralded Zinfandel vineyard.
