Visit the Old Sugar Mill wineries in Clarksburg AVA<\/p><\/div>\n

The Old Sugar Mill<\/a> is now been transformed into a home for several California wineries and tasting rooms. If you live in Sacramento, don\u2019t miss a visit to the renovated mill. Undoubtedly you will want to return.<\/p>\n

The mill is located only a few minutes from Sacramento. After traveling through a couple of quaint towns, travelers will come to a unique bridge crossing the Sacramento River.<\/p>\n

History of the Old Sugar Mill<\/i><\/p>\n

The tall, brick building was originally built in Utah for beet sugar. It was dismantled and brought to the Clarksburg area where it reopened in the mid 1930s. The final ownership of the sugar mill was Delta Sugar who closed the mill in 1993.<\/p>\n

Eventually plans were made to renovate this large brick structure for uses including winemaking, tasting rooms and events.<\/p>\n

Current tenants in the Old Sugar Mill include:<\/p>\n
