Winery Description: Shadow Ranch Vineyard is a family-owned boutique winery located in the Fair Play AVA of El Dorado County, California. Founded in 2006 by Sam and Kimari Patterson, the winery sits on an 80-acre historic estate that includes a beautifully restored 1888 farmhouse, now serving as the tasting room. The vineyard spans about 10 acres and is planted with varietals such as Sauvignon Blanc, Tempranillo, Petite Sirah, Grenache, and Zinfandel. Shadow Ranch focuses on producing small-lot, single-vineyard wines that express the rugged terroir of the Sierra Nevada foothills. Committed to sustainability, the winery utilizes solar energy and organic farming practices. Winemaker Sam Patterson, a UC Davis-trained viticulturist, brings hands-on experience from prestigious regions like Napa and Carneros to craft bold, site-driven wines in a relaxed, rustic setting.
