2024 Holiday GIFT GUIDE
founded in 1972 by david s. stare, dry creek vineyard became the first new winery in Dry Creek Valley after Prohibition, igniting a legacy of winemaking that continues to thrive. Today, his daughter Kim Stare Wallace leads the family business with a perfect balance of honoring tradition and embracing innovation.
As pioneers in sustainable farming, Partner Don Wallace, a fourthgeneration Californian farmer, oversees the integration of biodiversity and eco-friendly practices into the vineyards. At Dry Creek Vineyard, we pour ourselves into every glass, striving to craft wines that reflect the soul of our land and family.
With the second generation leading the way, Dry Creek Vineyard is poised for an exciting future full of possibility.
Dear Wine Lovers,

This season, we’ve curated special collections of our favorite wines to make your celebrations even more memorable. These selections are perfect for the wine lovers in your life — or perhaps to enjoy during your own treasured moments with loved ones.
