Garden Creek produces wines in Alexander Valley, Sonoma County's warmest benchland, where Cabernet Franc and Chardonnay thrive in diurnal temperature swings. The winery's flagship Tesserae blends five Bordeaux varieties—Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Petit Verdot—into a structured red that has drawn attention from Decanter and Wine Enthusiast. The Clonal Selection Chardonnay, sourced from carefully chosen vineyard blocks, shows the precision possible in the region's cooler microclimates. Both wines reflect Alexander Valley's capacity for ripe fruit and textural complexity, anchored by the valley's volcanic soils and maritime influence. Garden Creek's approach centers on varietal expression and site selection within one of California's most dynamic growing regions.
