The Wines
Our love of the land is reflected in each bottle of our wine. Great care was taken in selecting the grape varieties and clones which were best suited for our Sites Series soils and mountain climate. Our southwest exposure maximizes the suns' rays, perfectly ripening the grapes with concentrated flavors, color and texture. We would like to welcome you to Lucchesi Vineyards & Winery and hope you enjoy our collection of wines as much as we love making them.

The Vineyards
High upon a hillside overlooking Nevada County and with beautiful views of the Sierra Nevada mountains is our vineyard and winery. Come visit Nevada County, take in the views and discover our world-class, limited production wines. Nevada County has a rich Gold Rush history but is only now being discovered for its spectacular views and superb growing conditions, which are similar in climate to some of the greatest grape growing regions in the world. With plenty of fine dining, cultural events and lodging, coupled with handcrafted wines, Nevada County is a great weekend destination.


The Tasting Room
Located in Grass Valley, California, our tasting room is open daily from 11am until the party's over. During Cornish Christmas celebration in the winter and Thursday Night Markets in the summer, we remain open until the events are over. Come in and visit. We have knowledgeable staff, unique gift items, and complimentary tastings of our wines.
