FOUNDED IN 1889, and family owned and operated by the Rizzo Family since 1927, Bernardo Winery is one of the oldest continuously operating
wineries in California. The Winery is located 25 miles north of Downtown San Diego
and built on what was once the La Cañada de San Bernardo Spanish land grant. Surviving
Prohibition by producing sacramental wine, Bernardo Winery continues its tradition
of making approachable wines produced from San Diego County wine grapes. Visit us and explore the beautiful gardens, nostalgic property and unique dining and art destination we so humbly call home.
