La Mesa Vineyards is a top destination for wine and weekend fun in Amador. Enjoy tasting our wines under the shade sails while listening to the area's most promising young talent. We routinely host release parties, dinners, private tours and fun educational events for our Club members.
U-Pick walnuts
DURING BUSINESS HOURS, THRU END OF NOVEMBER
Bring your own 5-gallon bucket(s) and head out to collect some of our fabled walnuts while they are fresh fallen. There's no charge for walnuts you collect for yourself.
Once shelled and lightly roasted, our Franquette walnuts are soft to the taste and have none of the bitterness found in store-bought varieties. Delicious in a variety of recipes (homemade walnut butter, smoothies, desert toppings, etc).
Let us know you are coming by making a reservation, and mention in the notes that you would like to collect some free walnuts.
