Diamond Creek – 2022

Diamond Creek – 2022

Latest Releases from Diamond Creek:


Founded in 1968 by Al and Boots Brounstein, Diamond Creek Vineyards holds a legendary place in Napa Valley’s winemaking history as the region’s first estate dedicated exclusively to Cabernet Sauvignon. Located on the secluded Diamond Mountain in the northern reaches of the valley, the winery quickly established itself as a pioneer of single-vineyard expressions, with a philosophy rooted in showcasing the nuances of terroir long before it became a widespread practice in California.

Diamond Creek is renowned for its trio of distinct vineyard sites—Volcanic Hill, Gravelly Meadow, and Red Rock Terrace—each with unique soil compositions and microclimates that result in remarkably different yet consistently age-worthy wines. A fourth and extremely rare wine, Lake Vineyard, is produced only in exceptional vintages and in very limited quantities.

The wines of Diamond Creek are celebrated for their structure, complexity, and longevity. Known for their Old World elegance blended with Napa Valley power, they have garnered a devoted following among collectors and connoisseurs alike.

Even after Al Brounstein’s passing in 2006 and Boots’s in 2019, the legacy of Diamond Creek has endured. The estate was acquired by the Louis Roederer Champagne family in 2020, ensuring a continuation of its tradition and commitment to excellence. Today, Diamond Creek remains a benchmark for Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa Valley, embodying both the history and the ongoing evolution of one of America’s most important wine regions.
