We take corks pretty seriously over here and source ours only from sustainable cork forests! ♻️ All-natural corks are 100% biodegradable and compostable, making them a great option for wine closures. However, cork forests are also vital habitats for animals like the Iberian Lynx and Spanish Imperial Hawk. With our love of biodiversity, responsible sourcing of corks wasn't something we would ever compromise on! Next time you open a bottle of Dry Creek Vineyard wine, take a look at the cork itself to learn about its origins. 📷 @syrah_queen
#ThrowbackThursday to our 2019 Holiday Winemaker Dinner 🎄🍷 It's been a rewarding, and at times challenging, two years since we've had this annual event. We are so thrilled to see our Wine Club members in just a few days in full holiday spirits!
Water 💧 is an essential part of all life, from nourishing our lovely grapes to fueling the everyday activities of animals and humans around the world. This #GivingTuesday, we encourage you to help us and other Sonoma County wineries improve global clean water access through the Vineyards to Villages program. Our founder, David S. Stare, has a passion for philanthropy and serves as the Board Chairman for Global Partners of Development. He helped initiate the Vineyards to Villages (V2V) program in 2012 to raise money for clean water infrastructure, sanitation facilities and hygiene education in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. By building intimacy and working directly with the villages, V2V is a story of communities helping communities, with as little middlemen and procedural labyrinths as possible!

We are /so excited/ to announce that @wineenthusiast will be honoring our very own founder, David S. Stare, as its “American Wine Legend” at the upcoming Wine Star Awards! “All along the way, I was told that my ideas had never been done before. Being a kid from Boston, I was just bullheaded enough to do what I wanted to do. Nearly 50 years later, I am so proud that Dry Creek Vineyard remains one of the last truly private, family-owned, iconic wineries from Sonoma County consistently producing 90-plus point wines.” – Dave Read the full press release at bit.ly/davethelegend 🍷 Cheers!
Dear Zinfandel, I'm blushing. This is kinda awkward. Every morning, I peek over the rolling hills just for a little glimpse of you. You were always there, but my favorite days were in autumn, when you'd wear a bit of color. It looks so good on you, really. You'd catch anyone's eye, but especially mine. When I needed to celebrate a birthday, you were the first to help, no matter how last minute I planned the party. When I wanted to try a new recipe, you had some solid suggestions in your back pocket. You already know that I'm just so darn indecisive, but that never annoys you. Plus, you're not picky. You're good with almost everything I like. When I needed to make new friends, you were the conversation starter. When I had to catch up with old ones, you helped break the ice. Thanks to you, each day seems brighter, my humor less dry and my words a tad sweeter. Life is just rosier with you in it. I'm glad we'll keep growing and changing together. With you around, I'm positive that new opportunities and ideas are just beyond the morning fog. With love, Dry Creek Vineyard #NationalZinfandelDay

What's your favorite Cab Sauv pairing for a weekend dinner? 🍷 📷 @food_love_vino shares: "...a giant, grilled pork chop seasoned with an array of herbs and spices (sage being one 😉) over a bed of creamy, chive, smashed, red potatoes and grilled cabbage 😍😋" Mmm... it doesn't get much better than that!
