Our award-winning, hand-crafted California wines are made from premium wine grapes grown in Clarksburg Appellation.

Heringer Estates grows over 24 different wine grape varieties exclusively in Clarksburg, Ca, located in the Sacramento River Delta.  The rich soils and ideal climate of the appellation are just right for growing wine grapes and are the first step to creating award winning wines.  Since our first vintage in 2002, Mike Heringer has been submitting his wine varietals and blends to select wine competitions across the country.  Below is an account of the wine awards and vintages throughout the history of Heringer Estates.

Petite Sirah

Heringer Estates first award winner and rock star of the Clarksburg, AVA, is the Petite Sirah.  From 2003 to present day the Petite Sirah continues to be an award wining wine worth talking about.
