Diamond Terrace is the result of a dream that started in 1988 when Maureen’s parents purchased a 10-acre vineyard on Howell Mountain as a second home that they called “Eagle Summit.” We visited them there often and dreamed about raising our family in the Napa Valley.

We realized that dream in 1998 when we purchased a 16-acre parcel, with a 5-acre Cabernet vineyard on Diamond Mountain, just south of the town of Calistoga. After establishing the Diamond Terrace label and producing 6 vintages of Diamond Mountain Cabernet we felt ready to add another wine to our portfolio. In 2005 we brought our dream full circle by producing a Howell Mountain Cabernet from the Eagle Summit vineyard, now owned by Maureen and her brothers.





Winemaker Thomas Brown (Outpost, Schrader Cellars, Rivers-Marie) crafts Diamond Terrace at Outpost just up the road from our Howell Mountain property. Every year we select the best fruit from each of our vineyards to produce small quantities of each wine. We strive to create reserve wines that highlight the distinct characteristics of each of their mountain appellations.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
