Drivers should always be aware of their surroundings, especially in areas with high foot traffic, and adhere to speed limits and traffic signals.

A new winery in Amador County — 24 years in the making — has opened with a 6,500-square-foot tasting room and space for weddings and other events.

With the new location in the Gold Rush town of Ione, Domenico Winery now boasts a pair of California venues. The second winery is a long-awaited achievement for the winemakers.

“Bringing Domenico Winery to life has truly been a dream come true for our family,” owner and winemaker Dominick Chirichillo said. “We’ve owned this property since 2000, and from the moment we planted the vineyards, our vision was to one day build a winery here. Growing up in a traditional Italian household, surrounded by the rich aromas of homemade food and the art of winemaking, I was fortunate to experience this deep connection to our heritage from an early age.”

Chirichillo grows six estate wines: Syrah, Primitivo (Italian Zinfandel), Aglianico, Montepulciano, Nero d’ Avola and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Able to accommodate 400 people, Domenico Winery is opening in phases. The first phase was the tasting room and event space, which are now open to the public.

Chirichillo encourages visitors to do a tasting or pack a lunch, buy a bottle of wine and walk down to Goffinet Reservoir, which was built in the 1950s, to enjoy the scenery.

The tasting room and events venue occupies the first floor of a relaxed farmhouse-style building with modern industrial touches. The space is highlighted by dark tones and textured stone that complements whitewashed wood finishes, sculptured burnished brass and Brazilian Quartzite, “creating a sophisticated and contemporary aesthetic, making it comfortable, casual, and inviting,” according to a news release.

The second level is home to two bridal suites/meeting rooms with private restrooms, plus two mezzanine balconies overlooking the event space.

“For me, this winery is more than just a business — it’s a tribute to my grandfather, Domenico Giovinazzo, who not only taught me the craft of winemaking but also instilled in me a passion for it,” Chirichillo said. “My grandfather was one of seven brothers who migrated from Calabria, Italy, and each year, they all made their own wine. When they gathered, there were always lively debates over whose wine was the best — a tradition that truly speaks to the heart of our family.”

Dominick teams up on the new venture with his wife Gloria Chirichillo. They are also proprietors of the award-winning Domenico Winery in San Carlos, California, along with sons Nick and Matty and their wives.

The winery, located at 11655 Paine Road in Ione, has even bigger plans. Phase 2 will include:

▪ Outdoor event spaces with an open-air covered patio for ceremonies, weddings and other events

▪ Outdoor exhibition space with a cooking area

▪ Outdoor amphitheater for concerts, speakers and other performers.

▪ Art in residency program, where artists can share their stories

▪ Hiking trails

▪ Bocce ball

▪ A historic archaeological kiln and grinding rock

The property, once a cattle ranch, was originally inhabited by the indigenous Miwok people. Chirichillo said that he wanted to honor and respect the Miwoks’ legacy through “careful stewardship of the land.” That means bringing all 420 acres of the property, including eight acres of vineyards, back to an organic state through the practice of sustainable and regenerative farming.

The intact lime kiln he hopes to highlight in the second stage of the winery’s development is tucked into the acreage. It was installed in 1859 by J.H. Bonham, just five years after Amador became a California county, according to a news release. The kiln was used to produce plaster and mortar from the native limestone to use in constructing buildings in the Amador towns of Sutter Creek and Jackson.

Amador County is home to more than 45 family-run wineries. The nearest wineries to Domenico are Tanis Vineyard Winery and Covergence Vineyard, about five minutes away. The nearest wedding and events venue is about 10 miles away in Plymouth.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Northern California just experienced its hottest summer on record and the start of fall has been very hot, too.

There's been 49 days with temperatures 100 degrees or hotter in Sacramento so far, and there could be one more that would further extend the record. In a normal year, Sacramento has 24 days of triple-digit heat, so this year it's been doubled.

Sunday saw most places hit 100 degrees but downtown Sacramento narrowly missed the mark and only hit 99 degrees. It was 99 Saturday as well keeping the 100 degree days to four so far this month. The record of five was set back in 1980.

Monday will still be hot, but not as hot. A heat advisory goes to 11 p.m. Monday for hot temperatures well above the average for this time of year.

It's important to mention that due to the shorter days much less time is spent in the hot zone. For example, only two hours Monday will be spent at 100 degrees. During the summer, many more hours are near that temperature on a hot day.

Foothill temperatures will be in the 90s along with some Bay Area locations. San Francisco will start to cool with highs in the 80s versus the 90s it experienced all weekend.

Since this is so hot for October, it's worth looking at records. Here are some numbers of note:

DOWNTOWN SACRAMENTO

MONDAY: Normal: 83/55 | Records: 100 / 65

Average last 100° day (since 1990): September 15

Latest last 100° day (since 1990): October 10, 1991

SACRAMENTO EXECUTIVE

MONDAY: Normal: 83/53 | Records: 97 / 61

STOCKTON AIRPORT

MONDAY: Normal: 84/53 | Records: 99 / 61

MODESTO AIRPORT

MONDAY: Normal: 83/54 | Records: 96 / 63

People need to monitor for heat-related health conditions as well as a fire risk. The weekend will cool a bit but still be in the low 90s when the average high is in the mid 80s.
