About Villa Creek Cellars: Named repeatedly in 2019 as one of the best tasting rooms in Paso Robles, Villa Creek Cellars hangs its hat on treating every guest to delicious wines and a warm, informative exchange rather than a sales pitch. Since 2001, we have been sourcing Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes from vineyards that are farmed without pesticides and herbicides, and practice regenerative farming. The tasting room and winery are located on our certified biodynamic and certified organic MAHA Estate Vineyard. As of the 2015 vintage, 70% of the grapes in Villa Creek wines are certified organic and/or biodynamic. Clean grapes make the best wine! We strive to create wines of fruit, minerality, earth, and soul that embody the character of the varieties and their unique vineyard sites. Our production level remains at 2500 cases so we can touch every bottle.
