About Collier Falls Vineyards
Collier Falls Vineyards is one of the most genuinely micro-scale and honest small producers in Dry Creek Valley. Founded in 2000 by Dan and Dorothy Collier, the estate produces a tiny handful of wines, primarily old-vine Zinfandel from Dry Creek Valley estate and sourced vineyards, with a level of personal attention that only minuscule production allows.
Located at Timber Crest Farms on Dry Creek Road, the same address shared by Kokomo, Papapietro Perry, Amphora, and Peterson, Collier Falls benefits from one of the most beautiful hilltop settings in the valley. The wines are some of the most honest and food-compatible Dry Creek Zinfandels produced, made without excessive extraction or oak, focusing instead on the natural character of the old vines themselves.
Collier Falls is a Family Wineries Dry Creek member, which means it's often accessible through that collective's tasting room even when individual appointments aren't available. The $15 tasting fee and genuine small-producer warmth make it one of the best value discoveries on the Dry Creek corridor.
Collier Falls Vineyards presents a featured lineup that includes Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel, Ricetti Vineyard Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Together, these bottles provide a focused introduction to the varieties, vineyard sources, and style that define the winery's current portfolio.
