Spoto Wines

Spoto Wines is a family winery in Sacramento that focuses on Bordeaux-style red wines and produces around 500 cases each year. The grapes come from carefully selected sources and are processed using methods that prioritize quality over volume.

The origin traces back to Stuart's grandfather, who arrived from Sicily in 1913 and established early farming roots in Northern California. Three generations later, the family transformed their local experience into specialized wine production.

The family carries forward Italian winemaking traditions across three generations, blending technical expertise with cultivation knowledge from the region. Visitors experience a mix of craftsmanship and modern thinking that shows in every bottle produced here.

Visitors should book ahead and allow time for a relaxed tasting experience without feeling rushed through the process. The location in a residential area means the surroundings are quiet, and parking is typically easy to find.

The operation became the first licensed winery in a residential neighborhood of Sacramento County in 2004, pioneering a path for others to follow. This role shows how small-scale, neighborhood-based wine production can work in urban settings.
