Located on the eastern edge of the Napa Valley in the hills above Lake Hennessey and the town of Rutherford, this extraordinary mountaintop estate features 82 individual vineyard blocks, three distinctive soil types, and a range of elevations and exposures. From this rich and diverse palette of fruit, Kuleto Estate produces a small portfolio of exceptional estate grown wines.

Kuleto Estate wines are 100% estate-grown, produced and bottled. With 82.9 acres of vines planted between 800 and 1,450 feet, each of the 100+ micro-blocks must receive individualized treatment to maximize their potential. Winemaker Giovanni Verdejo has been working at Kuleto since 2002 and has mastered the art of cultivating the unique personalities of each block into some of the finest mountain estate wines in the Napa Valley.

Rusack was established in 1995 by Geoff Rusack and Alison Wrigley Rusack with a commitment to creating world-class wines. In the years since then, this dedication to quality has meant some dramatic changes at the winery. The most visible change is in the vineyard. Following the 2001 harvest, many of the original vines were pulled out and replanted. Utilizing cutting edge technology and taking advantage of Ballard Canyon’s unique terroir, varieties to be grown were carefully chosen and limited to those clones best suited to the microclimate. Syrah, Sangiovese, and Sauvignon Blanc have been planted, along with smaller lots of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot to be blended into the renowned "Anacapa."

Wilson Creek Vineyards benefits from its diverse terrain, rich soil, and unique micro-climate, all contributing to an ideal growing environment. However, it is the time-tested, hands-on family approach that has distinguished Wilson Creek among Temecula vineyards, earning it prestigious awards. Recognized by Temecula Valley Wine Growers and reviewed favorably by thousands on platforms like TripAdvisor and Yelp from around the globe, Wilson Creek owes its distinctive flavor to the collective contributions of many. This commitment drives Wilson Creek to maintain its standing as one of the premier vineyards in Temecula.

Visitors are invited to explore Wilson Creek's offerings, whether it's the Tasting Room, a reserved Wine Tour, or any of the inviting outdoor seating areas. Wine Club Members are especially welcome at the Upper Room, ensuring a memorable experience for all who visit.
