History
The original vineyard was planted in 1987 and the Taylor family, who purchased the land in 1998, began with the creation of the first estate wine one year later. Over the years both Thomas Rivers Brown and Joe Briggs were winemakers for the Diamond Terrace estate label which continued through 2008. Diamond Terrace wine is currently being made by Thomas Rivers Brown for the Wallis Estates label.
Our Philosophy
Standing atop the steeply terraced hillside, feeling the cool breeze and looking out over the land at the illuminated valley below, one can’t help but be enraptured by the beauty of Napa. There is a certain peace and community that you find amongst the greenery of Diamond Mountain in Calistoga. Over the years, the proprietors put a lot of love and care into building a lasting legacy, which continues to this day.
