Tulip Hill Winery Description
Tulip Hill Winery is the final outcome of a dream and hard work for Budge Brown and his daughter Kristi Brown. Budge Brown has been farming in California for over 50 years. When asked about his educational background (although he is a UC Davis graduate) he will smile and tell you he graduated from the School of Hard Knocks with a degree in Trial and Error and an emphasis in Blood, Sweat and Tears.

Budge and his daughter continue to build the Tulip Hill brand with the winery and tasting room located in Nice, California, as well as an off-site tasting room in Rancho Mirage, California. Tulip Hill Winery also has two main vineyards: Napa Valley's Pope Valley Vineyard and Tracy Hill's Mt. Oso Vineyard.

The tasting room is set in an attractive location up against the hills and surrounded by gardens, ponds, patios and a plethora of flowers. The annual Tulip Festival in held in late March where the property’s 50,000 tulips are at their full bloom. Join them in the tasting room for olive oil tasting, barrel tasting, tours, and special “bottle and label your own wine” programs.

For reds, the winery produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot, Petite Sirah, Zinfandel and a number of very well made blends. For whites the winery specializes in Chardonnay offering a number of vineyard designated options. They also produce a dry, crisp Pinot Grigio.

Pinot Grigio
shannon1, Los Angelas
December, 2008

Usually I do not like white wine. Reds feel more natural and soothing to me. However this was not the case for their Pinot Grigio at Tulip Hill. It is a nice clean and crisp white wine which I have been enjoying regularly since visiting this winery. The place is very cool with all the flowers and the tasting room is cozy and friendly.
