Murphys, CA...This is an update we like to post. Their previous special was so successful that is sold out. A new and updated special is below. Black Sheep Winery arrived in Murphys with the 1984 harvest. From that first harvest we produced our 1984 Amador Zinfandel. The wine was styled in a big, bold way like nobody else could do. That's what makes us Black Sheep; we're different from the rest of the flock. We feature small batches of limited release wines handcrafted from high quality grapes grown in Calaveras and Amador Counties. We produce about 2,500 cases of wine per year, specializing in Zinfandels and Rhone varietals.

Hey Good People! Great Conditions with More Snow on the Way! Bear Valley Update by Mattly Trent!
Posted by: thepinetree on 12/16/2018 01:44 PM
Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! Breezy conditions today as the approaching storm system brings with it tight surface gradients, so today and tomorrow we could see gusts upwards of 40mph at times. 40F looks to be the high for the day and snow should fall by late afternoon today. 5-9″ of new snow is expected tonight with another 1-3″ slated for early Monday. If things work in our favor we could see a few more inches than projected. We’ll move through the week with partly sunny skies and daytime temps will be in the mid to upper 40’s with lows in the 20’s. The models are not agreeing on the next system around Thursday or so but we’ll give it a few more days then see what they look like. It’s a great way to start full operations with a new coat of snow right before Christmas so don’t miss out and be sure to make plans to enjoy Bear Valley for the coming Holidays. As always we’re about “Pure Mtn Fun” .
