Named for the native California Gray Pine which is prevalent in our area, Gray Pine Vineyard & Winery is a small, limited-production winery located in Penn Valley, California, in the Sierra Foothills, with an annual production of approximately 350 cases. We grow our own grapes on our two-acre vineyard and make our own wines. Specializing in Bordeaux red varietals, we produce Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec and a classic Bordeaux-style Red Blend called PennRidge. We believe that fine wine is best enjoyed with fine meals and our winemaking focus is on food-friendly wines with balanced acid and tannins, in the classic Bordeaux style. Our first vintage was 2011. Please review the bottom of our "where-our-wines-are-available" page to check on availability of specific wines.

The winery tasting room is open most weekends from 12:30 pm to 4:00 pm (last tasting at 4:00 pm, finish up by 4:30). The table below shows our schedule for the next few weeks. Always check this web page before planning your visit to be sure we're open. Winery and cave tours and tastings are also available by appointment. Please call 530-432-7045.
