Established in 1968, it is touted as one of the most prominent pioneers in wine production in the region, serving as a testament of time and tradition.

Diamond Creek Winery is uniquely perched on a sprawling, 20-acre property teeming with vineyards that are beautifully segmented into four distinct vineyard plots: Volcanic Hill, Red Rock Terrace, Gravelly Meadow, and the smaller but equally noteworthy, Lake Vineyard. Each brings a unique flavor profile and complexity due to the varying soil types, microclimates, and sun exposures.
