Welcome to Ophir Wines

OPHIR WINES is a small winery (located in Newcastle, California) producing about 1000 cases per year of fine wines from grapes we grow ourselves in California's historic gold rush country, Placer County. We've concentrated on varietals well-suited to the sun and soil of our Sierra Foothills location, predominately Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, and Petite Sirah.

From these and other varietals grown in smaller quantities, we produce a supple Syrah that shows layers of aroma and flavor, a brisk and spicy Sauvignon Blanc, a dry Rosé made from Rhône grape varieties, and a deep, dark, intense Petite Sirah.

Our goal is to produce wine you will enjoy and talk about. We invite you to explore our web site and learn more about us, and about our approach to growing grapes and making wine in the Sierra Foothills of California.
