Why endure the cro
From Jackson Rancheria RV Park you are an easy drive to this wonderful wine area.
Some three dozen wineries are nestled along scenic back roads in some of California’s most picturesque rural settings and offer gracious, unpretentious hospitality. You can sip Amador’s award-winning wines, including the famed old-vine zinfandels, while gazing at the beautiful, snow-capped Sierras or picnicking under grand old oak trees surrounded by vines.
Complimentary wine tasting is available year around, but if you’re looking for something extra, plan to attend one of the two big events produced each year by the Amador Vintners Association.
You can take a peek “Behind the Cellar Door” for a weekend of wine, food and fun, featuring tastings of new wines and current releases, along with gourmet food & wine pairings, live music, and entertaining seminars designed to enhance your knowledge and appreciation of wine. This annual event is held rain or shine March 3 & 4.
For an Autumn celebration plan to visit during the “Big Crush Harvest Festival” October 6 & 7. For these two days during the heart of the grape harvest season, aficionados can partake of great wine, food, music and other harvest festivities amidst. In addition to a diverse assortment of fine wines poured from both bottle and barrel, Big Crush attendees are treated to gourmet foods, live music at many wineries, and a big raffle for prizes including Amador wines and wine country dining, lodging, and transportation.
