At Dry Creek Vineyard, we are thrilled to share some wonderful news: we have been voted Best Winery in SFGATE’s Best of the Bay Area awards.
This honor means so much to our family and crew. For more than 50 years, we have worked to craft wines that reflect Dry Creek Valley, welcome guests with genuine hospitality, and stay true to who we are as an independent, family-owned winery.
A Meaningful Honor for Our Family-Owned Winery
Awards are always appreciated, but this one feels especially personal. SFGATE’s Best of the Bay Area celebrates the places people know, love, recommend, and return to. To be recognized in that way is deeply rewarding.
Our philosophy has always centered on family, heritage, and authenticity. We remain hands-on in our approach because we care about every part of the experience, from the vineyard to the glass. Being named Best Winery is a meaningful reminder that those values still matter.
It is also a celebration of the community around us. Every guest who has visited our tasting room, joined our wine club, opened a bottle at home, or shared Dry Creek Vineyard with friends has played a part in this moment.
Rooted in Dry Creek Valley
Our wines begin with a strong sense of place. Dry Creek Valley has shaped our story from the start, and we are proud to craft appellation-focused, terroir-driven wines that reflect the character of this remarkable region.
That commitment includes our 185 acres of estate vineyard, which are 100% certified sustainable. We believe healthy soil, thoughtful farming, and careful attention in the vineyard help create wines with clarity, balance, and purpose.
This award is not only a recognition of our wines. It also honors the people, land, and long-term vision behind them.
