El Dorado County Wineries to Order Online From

As in other parts of California, many El Dorado County wineries rely on direct to consumer (DTC) sales.

Nancy Light, spokesperson for the Wine Institute told Emily Hamann of the Sacramento Business Journal, "The vast majority of California’s 3,900 wineries are small, family businesses that depend on tasting room visitors and derive significant revenue from DTC sales."

Until California tasting room visitors are allowed to return, many wineries are relying on exclusively on online orders for their sales.

Here is a partial list of El Dorado County wineries along with direct links to each winery's shopping page. Happy wine shopping.
