Dry Creek Valley
For more than 50 years, Dry Creek Vineyard has been a leader in Sauvignon Blanc in California. Inspired by the dry white wines of France’s Loire Valley, winery Founder David S. Stare was the first person to plant Sauvignon Blanc in Dry Creek Valley against the advice of viticultural experts. The winery’s first vintage in 1972 included a Fumé Blanc that proved his intuition right. Today, under the leadership of his daughter, Winery President Kim Stare Wallace, Dry Creek Vineyard remains a standard bearer for the variety.
