1850 Wine Cellars is a Camino / Placerville tasting room led by winemaker Brian Darwazeh, whose background is rooted in Northern California agriculture. The winery is tied to the Sierra Foothills AVA and works across a broad California portfolio, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel, Meritage, Chardonnay, Syrah, Grenache, and seasonal releases.
Rather than presenting a single-estate story, 1850 highlights California-grown fruit and foothill influence through wines sourced from places such as Sierra Foothills, El Dorado, Fair Play, Amador County, and beyond. Guests can expect an approachable Apple Hill tasting room with red wines, whites, seasonal bottlings, food-pairing options, and a setting suited to relaxed exploration.
