About Star Lane Vineyard and Dierberg Vineyard

The Dierberg Estate comprises several thousand acres of mixed-use land including agriculture and viticulture. A multi-generation, family estate in its second generation of leadership, the estate is comprised of two distinct vineyards in separate appellations of the transverse valley that is the Santa Barbara wine region. Dierberg Vineyard is located in the Sta. Rita Hills and is a California Certified Sustainable single vineyard focused on producing critically acclaimed Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in a soil and climate perfectly suited for both. Star Lane Vineyard is located 40 minutes to the east of Dierberg Vineyard, on the picturesque Star Lane Ranch in the Happy Canyon AVA. With a focus on Excellence in California Cabernet, Star Lane Vineyard celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2023 and has helped the region gain critical acclaim for world-class Cabernet potential. Also Certified California Sustainable, Star Lane Vineyard has produced Cabernet Sauvignon that critics have heralded as game changing for the potential of California viticulture. Winemaking for both vineyards is lead by Tyler Thomas, who apprenticed with Aubert de Villaine at the renowned Hyde de Villaine project in Napa. Second generation siblings Michael Dierberg and Ellen Dierberg Milne lead the estate as stewards of a sustainable vision for world-class winemaking that was implemented by their parents as part of a 250-year plan.

Founded in 1996 by Jim Dierberg and Mary Dierberg.
