Lone Buffalo Vineyards Wines Are Locally Grown in Placer County California

LONE BUFFALO VINEYARDS WINES

LBV produces food-friendly, quality estate wines with the down-to-earth attitude and prices of the Sierra Foothills.  As a tribute to the mighty bison for which our winery is named, all our wines have a clever spin on the “buffalo” name.  Everything we make is hand-crafted in small lots and sells out each year.  Our “herd” is lined up for staggered releases beginning in late January so be sure taste early and taste often so you can enjoy the entire LBV program.
