The Mission

Women who love wine

Amador Estate is the unified home of Teneral Cellars and Grand Reserve Inn — both operated under Amadoras del Vino, a 100% women-owned company. "Teneral" describes a butterfly in its first moments after emerging from the chrysalis: vulnerable yet resilient, transformed and ready to take flight.

We donate 10% of profits to organizations that empower women, and source from sustainable, women-led farms whenever possible. Over 100 wine awards later, we're just getting started.

What We Believe

Rooted in values

Women-Owned
100% women-owned and operated. Every level of leadership, from winemaking to hospitality to business operations.
Mission-Driven
10% of profits donated to organizations that empower women through education, mentorship, and opportunity in the wine industry.
Sustainably Farmed
Estate vineyards farmed with sustainable practices. Dry-farmed old vines, cover crops, minimal intervention in the cellar.
The Estate

The Property

40 acres of possibility

The estate sits in Amador County's Shenandoah Valley — one of California's oldest and most distinctive wine regions. Zinfandel has been grown here since the Gold Rush. Our soils produce wines of extraordinary character: bold, spicy, with a sense of place you can taste.

The property includes estate vineyards, a 30-year olive grove, six luxury suites in a stone villa, event spaces, and room to breathe. It's a place designed for slow mornings and long conversations.
