Baiocchi

Sierra Foothills Mediterranean and Rhône varietals with precision and character.

Baiocchi operates in California's Sierra Foothills, a region defined by elevation, diurnal temperature swings, and soils that favor bold red varietals and aromatic whites. The winery's portfolio centers on Mediterranean and Rhône-inspired grapes. Grump's Vineyard Tempranillo, a pure expression of the Spanish varietal, demonstrates the region's capacity for structured, age-worthy reds. The Viognier—a white of aromatic intensity and textural weight—reflects the winery's range across the varietal spectrum. Del Maggio, a Shiraz and Grenache blend, channels the Rhône tradition of complementary dark fruits and spice. Wine Enthusiast has rated these wines, affirming their technical merit. Baiocchi's focus on less-common varietals and single-vineyard designations positions it within the Sierra Foothills' tradition of experimentation and terroir-driven winemaking.
