Excellence
Quality To It's Finest
We are proud to be recognized as one of the most awarded wineries in North America—honors earned with integrity and intention.
Golden State Winery of the Year
The Governor’s Office presented us with this award representing Wise Villa Winery and Restaurant as having the highest number of quality wine than any other winery in California.
A California Certified Sustainable Winery
About 90% of all wineries and vineyards in California are not California Sustainable. We hold the distinction of being among only about 9% of wineries to receive this certification.
San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition Medals
The largest wine competition in North America, and we stand out as having the highest number of quality wines than any other winery in all of North America. This event is not a pay to play event, so judges are basing the award solely on the merit of the wines themselves!
A Fabulous Gourmet Restaurant
The only winery in Placer County to feature a restaurant that is open 7 days a week. We feature breathtaking views of the vineyards situated on rolling hills. It’s reminiscent of a vista from Tuscany, Italy- you’d swear you were there! Our masterful chef creates unique, mouth watering plates keeping you wanting to return for more.

OUR MISSION
Educate Every Guest
Since our first vintage was released in 2009, Wise Villa has been a family owned and operated winery, estate vineyard, and Tuscan-style Gourmet Restaurant located in the heart of the Sierra Foothills Wine Appellation of Placer County.
Our grapes are meticulously grown using organic and sustainable practices. During harvest we go a step further by triple sorting and implementing whole berry cold fermentation to retain a balanced wine with natural fresh fruit character.
