Maple Creek Winery (Artevino) Description
Artevino and Maple Creek Estate Winery produce limited-production, high-quality and hand-crafted wines at a bucolic 180-acre wooded hillside ranch. The
family-owned operation is a blend of their passions for both art and wine. Chardonnay is their flagship offering, but there is plenty of red wine to discover as well, including a luscious Zinfandel.
Head up the long paved drive past the organic vineyards and wooded hillsides to find the restored redwood barn that hosts the tasting room and winery of Maple Creek and its sister label Artevino. The cozy barn is filled with the owner’s brilliant artwork, gourmet treats and a tasting counter full of wine.
In addition to their barrel-fermented Burgundian-style Chardonnay, the winery produces some wonderful reds, including a Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, an estate Merlot, their Cowboy Red blend of Zinfandel and Merlot, their Montage Bordeaux blend, a white blend called Buckin’ Blanco, an off-dry Rosé and a late-harvest Flora.
The art nouveau-influenced labels are designed by owner, artist and winemaker Tom Rodrigues. His vineyard artwork and label design is well known in the industry, and some of his art is on display in the winery.
The ranch has 12 acres of sustainable and organic Chardonnay, Merlot and Symphony wine grapes, along with organic gardens, fruit orchards, seven springs and a forest of trees. There is a new patio out in front of the tasting room furnished with tables and chairs for enjoying the peaceful, rustic environment.
