About Us / Heron Lake Winery History:

In the mountains just east of the town of Napa is the coolest growing area of the Napa region, Wild Horse Valley. Here, nestled just below the ridgeline at 1200 feet elevation, is Heron Lake Vineyard and Winery, and the home of Olivia Brion wines. In managing our vineyard and winery, we try to follow nature's lead. In the three decades since John first planted the vineyard, we have worked diligently to refine our farming methods toward a long-term sustainable model that conserves natural resources, protects wildlife and reduces our climate footprint.
