The Castillo’s Hillside Shire Winery’s desire is to treat guests to their smooth and savory award-winning wines that will captivate the most unquenchable palate. Their oak-aged, handcrafted wine is a drinkable treasure, born from the vineyards infused by the peaceful surroundings that only nature can provide.
Ever since Casa de Fruta planted their first vineyards and orchards in 1908, they’ve been growing. The third-generation Zanger Family welcomes everyone to enjoy their varietal wines and gourmet fruit wines with tasting daily from 9 a.m. until 6 p.m.
With a love for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, Josh Jensen founded Calera Wine Company in 1975, and now has 84 acres of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Viognier planted in the Mt. Harlan American Viticultural Area in San Benito County.
Aver Family Vineyards specializes in Rhone varietals on a magical 8.25-acre estate in the Uvas Valley. They personally tend to every vine, coaxing them to their greatest potential.
Of all the wonderful things that Gilroy and its sister cities have to offer, we are bursting with pride over our local wineries. Our wine owners and winemakers work tremendously hard to craft their award-winning wines. Their commitment to quality and environmental stewardship has resulted in wines that rival the finest in the world. Just this past year alone our wineries have earned the top awards at all the major wine competitions.
