Murphys, CA… 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.

Your Pure Mountain Fun Awaits at Bear Valley!!
Posted by: thepinetree on 01/18/2022 10:27 AM
Bear Valley, CA...Hey Good People! We broke our all time December record for snowfall on Dec 29th at 8am with the new record being 161″. Mattly’s weather forecast for Tuesday. A mostly sunny day is ahead with the high coming in around 37F with East winds in the single digits. Continued sunny skies and dry conditions look to stick around for the remainder of the month. This mornings model runs show and better formation of a stronger pacific undercutting pattern developing around the end of the month as the GFS and Euro runs align. Yesterday this looked weak at best yet this morning things have progressed into a more promising weather pattern around the 28th or so. An AR event during that phase looks promising so keep your fingers crossed, do your snow dances and all else that conjures up Uhlr and his influence on snowfall. Stay tuned!
