DIAMOND CREEK - NAPA VALLEY
The story of this top estate started when Al Brounstein took a wine
appreciation class at UCLA and fell in love with Bordeaux and Burgundy.
A few years later in 1968, he paid around $100k for 80 acres on Diamond
Mountain from a seller who luckily had failed in trying to build a nine-hole
golf course. He smuggled vine cuttings from Bordeaux via Mexico so he
wouldn’t have to put them through the long and expensive quarantine
process and so, Diamond Creek was born. Today this estate produces
some of the top Cabernets in Napa.
