Bump City Wine Co

Bump City Winery, Clarksburg , CA - September 7, 2024Bump City Winery is a nice venue for wine tasting. They have a nice long bar as well as a spacious seating area with many tables. The tasting is $15 per person for six wines. Tasting fee is waived with a purchase of a bottle.Our server's name was Jane. It was a delight to have her as our server. She shared lots of stories about the winery. One of the owners is the keyboardist for the musical group Tower of Power. One of the songs Tower of Power did was called Bump City, and that's how the winery got its name. Wines were tasty and reasonably priced in the $25-$55 price range. We got a bottle of the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

September 7, 2024We were at the Old Sugar Mill for an event, and we were trying to decide which tasting room to visit for our second and final tasting of the day. There are 14 wineries represented here, so the choices are many. How to decide???We walked by Bump City Wine Co. That name triggered a memory and a flash to the past had me singing..."Down to the Nightclub (We go bump-ty, bump-ty, bump, Bump City!" Tower of Power, oh yeah! Decision made, and in we went.We were greeted and seated immediately, even though they were a bit busy. Jane, our server, was a delight, and proceeded to entertain us with bits of info about the winery and wines, and a few interesting notes about Tower of Power, including that Roger Smith, keyboardist for Tower of Power, is the co-owner of Bump City Wine Co. We tasted 5 wines for $15, and we each chose a bottle to buy to waive the tasting fee (Chardonnay and Pinot Noir). Good wines, good prices, and fun tasting room with a bit of Tower of Power memorabilia.

Cute little winery in Old Sugar Mill! We left with a bottle of dessert wine for Thanksgiving (Gewürtztraminer). Definitely a must in Clarksburg!

Joined my sisters group to celebrate hers and her friends birthday at the Old Sugar Mill! We started off with reservations at a different winery at the mill and the lady pouring for us highly recommended Bump City because she thought it would match our vibe. Well I have to say that she was absolutely correct! We didn't have reservations as a party of 6 but they had room for us and we were led to a large circular table right away. Someone came over immediately with the tasting menu and got us going. The man who was pouring for us was absolutely wonderful and he totally made the whole experience! He taught us so much about Bump City history with each pour and he was incredibly personable! All the wines we tasted were really good and the service was supreme! Will definitely return!

For our first time wine tasting my friend and I decided to do a walk-in visit with Bump City and we had such a great experience! We got to meet one of the owners from the band Tower of Power and found the staff to be lovely in helping us try wines we liked (and disliked) and then on the house, bringing us a sample of one of their popular white wines which was DELICIOUS. We ended up buying two bottles of the first wine we tasted along with a Bump City Hat which was signed by the owner! I would easily come back in the future for a drink with a friend or just by myself!

First time at Old Sugar Mill and Bump City was the first winery we checked out. Very disappointed in their service. The young lady who greeted us at the entrance was really nice but the older lady who decided to help us out was super rude. She was so bossy I thought she was the owner. My friends and I were super confused at what she's trying to ask us when she loudly and exasperatedly ask us what our end goal was? What is anyone's end goal at a winery, lady? She rolled her eyes when my friend was trying to figure out which wine she'd like to try. So service was terrible. Wine was ok. Port tasted like port but nothing to write home about. Their Merlot did not taste like Merlot, almost has a sweet & slight sour taste to it. Would not recommend and would not go back.

Casual atmosphere for wine tasting at the old sugar mill. I believe that this is one of the more popular spots and a fave for my friends. Great wine to bring for your hikes. The service is kind.

Just went here for wine tasting. Terribly disappointed. Server told us name of wine and not much more. Very small pours. Give this place a miss.

No way you would think this winery was black owne. Vibe, costume engagement, pours. Boring.

Enjoyed my wine tasting at bump city for my membership pickup. The lady that helped us was nice and friendly. The wine was good.
