A six acre organic vineyard & natural winery on 21 acres awaits you at Gold Dust Vineyard. A working natural winery and cidery, come enjoy a glass, relax in the breezes at 2’700 feet. Decomposed granite soils and high elevation make for sweeping views and even better natural wine and cider! We welcome guests year round! Surrounded by nature, there is so much to do! Up in the Foothills, we experience all four seasons! Come relax☮️ March - May 🌸Don’t miss the wildflowers & babbling brooks, steams & rivers June - September 🏞Swimming in the Consumnes River or paddle boarding at Jenkinson Lake September - December 🍂🍁Fall foliage, wine harvest, apple picking and alpaca petting December - March ❄️⛷Snowy hikes, mushroom hunting and quick trips to South Lake Tahoe We accept reservations for wine and cider tastings and typically host guests between the hours of 11 am and 5 pm. Occasionally, during very hot and busy holiday weekends, we will host an evening tasting. We have running water on the side of the winery building. Please note, we are a mom and pop shop with just two of us and our young son running the show. We live on site in a tiny house and use the tasting area as our 'back yard' during off hours. We ask that guests please respect our area and off hours requests. We do not permit live fires or generators.

Mountain tent camping at a vineyard
Aaron has a lovely property and some very tasty wines and ciders! We went up for the night and enjoyed a tasting with our fellow campers. Aaron made us feel right at home. It was fun hearing about his wine-making process and the tasting notes while being so intimately situated among the vineyards. And the sunset from the tasting patio was phenomenal! We would absolutely come stay again.

We loved our 2 night stay at Gold Dust Vineyard with our Tall Boy teardrop camper! Peaceful and beautiful setting with so many stars at night, and amazing sunsets. Aaron provided a great wine and hard cider tasting experience. His passion for his craft is very apparent. Met some really nice fellow campers as well. We will for sure be back!

Aaron was an amazing host and I had an amazing time in their property drinking wine, going swimming in their local swimming hole, and eating lots of local donuts thanks to Aaron’s recommendation. Couldn’t recommend this place enough for a getaway to a quiet spot!

I loved the whole experience even if it was just for 1 day/night. Everything was as in line with what was advertised. Aaron was kind to show me the place and guide me with some best practices on how to drive on dirt roads. He additionally exactly pin pointed where I could park and access the river from. Me and my dog enjoyed the river all by ourselves. An unparalleled experience. The view of the stars at night were spectacular. I will absolutely come back to experience more of this.
