Topography, climate and soils combine to make Nevada County wines distinctive, complex and varied. Blessed by warm sunny days, afternoon Sierra breezes and cool nights, Nevada County is becoming recognized as part of "California's other wine country". I have sold over 400 acres of existing vineyard land, including "Smith Vineyard and Winery", the oldest organic vineyard in Nevada County.

Below are some of our fantastic local vineyard/wineries.

Solune Winery & Wines

An award winning winery specializing in small-lot production of concentrated and well structured wines thriving under these ideal ripening conditions. Reflecting winegrower Jacques Mercier's roots, Solune combines the french words for sun (soleil) and moon (lune), to convey the tremendous premium grape growing advantage we enjoy in this beautiful Northern California Sierra Foothills area, namely, an unusually large temperature difference between our warm days and our cool nights (40-50°F).
