A lot of vision and dreaming went into the creation of Rancho Roble Vineyard, located in the Placer County countryside, conveniently close to the Lincoln area; this incredible 20-acre estate will impress. The 4.5 acres of planted, mature grape vines are nestled among Valley Oaks and hundreds of farming acres. You may even spot a cow or llama while enjoying the fields and peacefulness that extends for miles.
John and Gigi Sweeny, the estate owners, created this showplace, added innumerable beautiful touches and conveniences, set up a fabulous tasting room and small boutique, and made home design changes, and even held the wedding of daughter and son-in-law (Domingos is co-owner and wine-maker) at Rancho Roble. The doors have recently been opened for others to rent their Mediterranean inspired venue and plan a wedding or other social event desired. In addition to the beautiful countryside and vineyard views, Rancho Roble offers multiple outdoor venue options for intimate to elaborate ceremonies and receptions. From the gorgeous side Patio to the Pondview decomposed granite open area, to the grassy ceremony site overlooking the pond, this venue has it all.
Let’s start with The Patio – which to us has the feel of an Italian Villa with it’s stamped pavers! This long and narrow space offers a prominent rock fireplace that would be the perfect backdrop to a winter wedding or some added warmth for a spring or fall evening event. This space will comfortably accommodate 100 guests with overhead crisscross market lighting and an organic comfort of surrounding trees, raised beds, and warmth. A few cool elements like the wrought iron seating pieces, unique wine barrel cocktail tables with glass tops (wine corks are visible just under the glass!), and a custom made portable rustic bar, add extra perks to this venue. Re-purposing these items is no problem. An additional mini-patio makes very intimate gatherings possible without the need to use the other spaces and could be a great spot for your rehearsal dinner or birthday party. Adorable hanging lights, custom wine barrel Adirondack chairs, and the fact that renting Rancho Roble Vineyards for private events means you have the winery to yourselves for the entire weekend continue to add to the reasons this place is ideal for you.
Another event space perfect for any size group, but ideal for 150-250 guests, is the Pondview open space, speckled with olive trees, lined by grassy areas, with plantings of rosemary and lavender abound. This space is a blank canvas and ideal for an open-air reception or a beautiful tent. The owners of Rancho Roble have simplified things by including upgraded portable restrooms and an option for the gorgeous Villa rental This newly remodeled 3 bed/2 bath home with gourmet kitchen can be added to any event rental for dressing/getting ready and for overnight accommodations sleeping 8 guests.
If hosting a wedding ceremony is part of your plans, a beautiful, multi terraced ceremony site is also available at Rancho Roble. Guests can be seated in the grassy area with the pond and vineyards as the backdrop while the bride and groom are placed on the upper tier overlooking the pond. The pond backdrop even comes with the option to place the water fountain feature anywhere you like in the pond (yes, the fountain can be moved!). The alternating concrete and paver walkway leads to the upper steps with the pond behind, so a clean and simple aisle is all part of the plan.
With photo ops of a wisteria arch in the spring, the blooming rose garden in the spring to summer or the multiple Italianate fountain features found throughout the property, we are certain you will love this venue and your event photos long after the party ends. Bocce Ball, kid’s playground and corn hole add to the fun and success of any event hosted on this property.

And don’t forget to visit and enjoy their estate grown wine… we give each varietal a thumbs up!
