About Fox Creek Cellars
Fox Creek Cellars is a small-production St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon label founded in 2016, producing wines from carefully sourced Napa Valley vineyard fruit with an emphasis on the structured, age-worthy style that St. Helena's benchland soils reliably support. The label takes its name from the network of seasonal creek drainages that run through the St. Helena hillsides, natural water management systems that have shaped the area's agricultural character for over a century.
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is the primary production, sourced from established vineyard relationships in St. Helena and neighboring appellations. The winemaking approach prioritizes balance and cellaring potential, wines with the density to age but the structure to drink well in youth, a balance that the best St. Helena fruit makes achievable without heavy winemaker intervention.
Tastings are by appointment at $65, with an intimate format designed for focused engagement with the wines and the St. Helena terroir philosophy. As a 2016 founding, Fox Creek has now accumulated nearly a decade of vintages, enough to demonstrate a consistent house style and give potential mailing list members meaningful vintage history to evaluate.
"Fox Creek Cellars is precisely the kind of serious small St. Helena label that rewards collectors who are paying attention to the boutique tier, genuine Napa Cabernet at human scale."
Wine access is primarily through the mailing list and by-appointment tastings. For collectors building positions in emerging St. Helena boutique labels, Fox Creek Cellars' combination of appellation pedigree and focused winemaking makes it a compelling early-access opportunity.
