Auriga Wine Cellars

Hours: Year Round

Auriga Wine Cellars is located in El Dorado County in Northern California. "Auriga" is the ancient Greek and Roman name of a constellation in the Northern hemisphere and is commonly referred to as the "charioteer." Auriga wines are made from Sierra Foothill vineyards. This is the historic location of vineyards, which supplied the gold miners (49ers) with wine in the last century. The soils in the foothills are thin and the vines have to struggle to survive, resulting in intense concentrated wines. You can try our award winning Barbera, Sangiovese, Zinfandel and more in our tasting room on Pleasant Valley Road.
