Sierra Foothill Wines of Distinction Since 1978

Stevenot Winery, one of California’s premier boutique wineries, is located in the Sierra foothills in Calaveras County in the heart of California’s Gold Country, an area which has been a respected wine grape growing region since the mid 1800s.

Established in 1973, the winery is at the forefront of the renaissance of premium wine production in Calaveras County. From Chardonnay and Orange Muscat to Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Zinfandel, Merlot, and our newest red sensation – Tempranillo, each taste exemplifies Stevenot’s rich history, excellent foothill climate, impeccable vineyards, and the personal care of Winemaker Chuck Hovey.

Stevenot is proud to be part of a long and rich tradition of producing world-class wines in the Sierra foothills. We invite you to explore our web site, visit in person, and enjoy this tradition as Stevenot Winery moves into its third decade of producing Sierra Foothill wines of distinction.

Winemakers Philosophy
“I consider blending to be the true art of the winemaker. My goal is to arrive at a wine that is greater than the sum of its parts – to transcend varietal expression and create a distinctive wine that incorporates the finest elements of its component parts without speaking with one dominant voice. Blending is the only way to create a truly layered, complex flavor profile.”
