The beauty of the Dry Creek Valley is apparent; the lush vineyards that extend from the valley floor to the hills signal the real charisma of the region with its precise blend of climate, soil and exposure that produces remarkable Cabernet Sauvignon. The Dry Creek Valley is approximately 16 miles long and only 2 miles wide at its widest point; the Dry Creek Valley was created by uplift and subsidence along ancient earthquake faults, accompanied by the deposit of alluvial material.
