Helwig Winery and Vineyards

Helwig Winery is a family-owned estate winery situated in California's Shenandoah Valley, nestled in the Sierra Foothills of Amador County outside Plymouth. The property features a spacious tasting room, a 5,000-square-foot underground wine cave, a tasting deck with panoramic views of the Sierra and Coastal mountains, and a full-service kitchen. The winery has been welcoming guests since 2011 and is known for its award-winning portfolio of estate wines. For private events, Helwig Winery offers a collection of distinct spaces across the property — an outdoor amphitheater for ceremonies, a wine cave for cocktail hours, an outdoor pavilion for receptions, and dedicated preparation rooms for wedding parties. All-inclusive wedding packages provide event coordination, tables, chairs, linens, stemware, a custom outdoor bar, market lights, outdoor heaters, and golf carts for photography throughout the estate's vineyard grounds. The events team is led by Kathleen Mahan, Director of Events and Culinary Services, who guides couples through planning consultations, ceremony rehearsals, day-of coordination, and complete setup and breakdown. Corporate and private gatherings of all sizes can also be accommodated on the property.
