I've been to nearly all the wineries around Plymouth/Shenandoah, Placerville area and Fairplay and E16 is our favorite. Robert creates outstanding wine and provides a customer experience that makes each visit feel like visiting family. I highly recommend everyone give E16 a visit and to also experience incredible food and bites prepared by Joe who also makes every visit to E16 so enjoyable. Thanks guys!

Came up with a group of 9 from Sacramento. This place is beautiful, and the woman that helped us during the tasting was sweet and friendly. The Pinot and the Grenache are fantastic.

We hit the tasting room late on a Saturday fall afternoon. Surprisingly at that time it was nice and quiet. We chose to sit out front on the patio. But the tasting room is open and spacious. We came for the Pinot Noir, but found only one in the tasting. Grenache Blanc, Grenache, Barbera, and Syrah were our other sips. We needed a prepaid reservation. Corn hole and bocce ball areas are also at the tasting room site. Private parking are.

E 16 winery and chef Joe. Just wow. My friend Maria is a wine blogger. Came up yesterday with a group of 5 women. Amazing service. We stayed for the paia night dinner. It was a huge feast. The food was delicious. The service was 10/10 the best. The place is adorable. We sat and drank in the wine cave. If you are ever looking for a beautiful place less then 2 hours from sac come here!!!! The service and people make it better then Napa any day!

My husband, daughter and I visited E16 last weekend and had a wonderful time! The tasting room and lounge are beautiful and Moani was just so engaging and poured us the best wine ever! We even were lucky enough to meet the owner Robert who made us feel so welcomed. We will definately be back! Try their Syrah and the Barbera if it's available (sells out quickly). You won't be disappointed!

This winery is truly a gem! I had never been wine tasting in the Placerville area - and, now I'm hooked thanks single-handedly to E16. At E16 you walk in a stranger and out with friends! The hospitality is second to none. The wines are simply fabulous. And, Chef Joe's creations are masterpieces all unto themselves! If you have an opportunity to relax in the cave... I highly recommend it! I cannot wait until my return trip. Thank you, Robert, for creating such an incredible destination!!!

I'm in this area a fair amount and yet have only just recently discovered how fantastic E16 is. The tasting room is located on a busy corner right smack in the middle of Fairplay's wine country. It's unassuming from the front exterior, but we were pleasantly surprised by how sleek it is inside. And that wine cave for members with the enormous antique bar and handcrafted walnut tables? Simply gorgeous. Although everything I have tried on my visits here has been quite good, the real star at E16 is the award-winning pinot noir, which is also nearly impossible to find in this region! If you talk to the owner, Robert, you'll quickly learn that pinot is his passion (I can totally relate) and his partnerships with revered vineyards throughout California are how he's getting such delicious pinot noir to Fairplay. I've now been twice to the tasting room with friends, including most recently during Passport weekend, and each time have had a terrific experience. I bought a couple of bottles of their pinot and am also seriously considering joining their wine club. E16 is like a slice of Napa (without all the pretentiousness) dropped right in the heart of Fairplay and I am all about it. Definitely stop in and try the wines!

We had a fantastic experience at this pet-friendly winery! Ms. Loree was the perfect host and the owner, Mr. Rob, made it a point to get to know us during our tasting. It was an easy decision to become members!
