Mill Creek
   
Vineyards and Winery Established 1974

Welcome to Mill Creek Vineyards and Winery. We are a small, family owned and operated winery located in the southern end of the Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County Three generations of the Kreck family have been involved in the winemaking process from the vineyards to the cellar and out into the marketplace. We invite you to try our award winning wines and experience a taste of why we have made this area our home.

Mill Creek wines have won many of the most prestigious awards possible including the Sonoma County Harvest Fair's coveted Sweepstakes Award, the California State Fair's Best Wine in the State award, and Orange County Fair's Four Star Gold as well as dozens of Best of Class awards and hundreds of Gold medals.

Conceived in 1965 when the family moved into the area and planted grapes, the winery was not actually born until nine years later with the first production of Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon. Two years later we completed transforming an existing farming structure into a state of the art winery. In 1982, Mill Creek built its tasting room modeled after one of the many Wood Mills that were popular in the area around the turn of the century.

Seven members of the Kreck family currently work on the Mill Creek property. Bob and Elizabeth Kreck and their son Matt farm fifty-five acres of grapes. Bill and Yvonne Kreck, with their sons Brian and Jeremy, take the grapes and produce world-class wines for distribution throughout the United States.

On this single property, you can visit a place that completes the entire process of growing grapes through selling wine. Unlike some properties where they purchase most of the fruit, or even make the wine off-site, Mill Creek is the complete package where one can experience the creation of excellent varietal wines from start to finish.

Spring is everywhere!

It is spring! Everything is bursting into leaf and flower and the whole winery property is alive with activity. It seems whether it is around the tasting room, out in the vineyards, up at the winery, or at the office – every time you look around there is hustle bustle.

This is a very lush, green time in the county, as the hillsides are still green. There are flowers everywhere. Camellias, Azaleas, and Rhododendrons grow abundantly in Sonoma County. The Roses are budding out, as are the Iris. Moss on the trees, ferns, and new bright green leaves complete the picture.
