Carlson Creek Vineyard is rooted in southeastern Arizona, just outside of Willcox. Here our estate spans more than 300 acres at an elevation of 4,200 feet. This high-elevation setting creates a growing environment unlike what many expect from Arizona. One defined by warm days, cool nights, and a long, steady ripening season.
These conditions allow grapes to develop naturally, building structure, color, and depth while retaining balance and freshness. Winemakers more commonly associate this climate with renowned wine regions in Argentina, Chile, and the south of France. An environment that allows our vineyards to express both character and restraint.
The Carlson family planted the first seven acres of the vineyard in 2009. They worked the land together and establishing the foundation for what would become a fully estate-grown winery. Over the years, the vineyard expanded thoughtfully, guided by the belief that growth should always serve quality and longevity.
