1850

1850 produces wines from Amador County in California's Sierra Foothills, a region known for bold reds and distinctive white varietals shaped by elevation and continental climate. The winery's Viognier—a white varietal prized for its aromatic intensity and textural richness—anchors their portfolio, joined by Zinfandel, the Sierra Foothills' signature red. A Meritage blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon rounds out the core offerings. Wine Enthusiast has rated across the range, with the Viognier reaching 91 points, the Zinfandel at 89.3, and the Meritage at 89.0. The winery's focus on these varietals reflects both regional tradition and the terroir's capacity for expressive, structured wines.
