In years past, Mill Creek Vineyards was perhaps better known for merlot than for any other wine it produced. We first began making merlot way back in 1976, long before most other California wineries and long, long before it became the “in” wine. Although no longer the only Mill Creek wine that consistently wins accolades, Mill Creek Merlot continues to impress wine competition judges, wine writers, visitors to our Tasting Room, and--most importantly--our loyal customers who know and love it.
