Shasta Lake Chamber Welcomes Ridgetop Cellars Winery & Vineyard

Yes, indeed—Ridgetop Cellars Winery & Vineyard owner Jay Sepulveda received a warm “new member” welcome from the Shasta Lake Chamber of Commerce. With outside temperatures nearly topping 80 degrees on Thursday, January 15, 2026, dozens of chamber members and supporters gathered at the Ridgetop Cellars Winery & Vineyard tasting room, 4229 Shasta Dam Boulevard, Shasta Lake, to break bread while networking to the hilt—a hallmark of capitalistic endeavor.

Equally enthusiastic, even appreciative, was Chamber Vice President Cherrel Kirkland, who responded with her own brand of optimism, saying, “Shasta Lake is a fast-growing city, so Ridgetop Cellars is certainly gonna add to our city’s success.”
