Gwinllan Estate LLC

Gwinllan Estate sits on a ridge top in Fairplay in the Sierra Foothills of El Dorado County, where views stretch in all directions. The work here centers on estate grapes, picked in small lots and hand sorted, then crafted into Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Vermentino, and Grenache Blanc. The house is known for hand-crafted sparkling wine made using méthode champenoise. The 2019 Late Disgorged Rosé took Best Sparkling at Sierra Foothill Wine Competition 2023 with 98 points and double gold from Sunset magazine. The 2020 Late Disgorged Blanc de Blancs won Best Sparkling in 2024. The 2021 Late Disgorged Blanc de Noirs followed suit in 2025. A special selection called Trident wines rounds out the portfolio.
