History
Lions Peak Vineyards was established in the early 1970; however, the winery and tasting room began in 1998. The business began with the sales of the Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and then branched off to producing our own label, Lions Peak. The first wine produced was the 1994 Cabernet Sauvignon and since that time Lions Peak has produced Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot,Malbec, Petite Sirah, Mourvedre, Zinfandel, Viognier, Rousanne, Marsanne, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Sauvignon Gris, and a Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel Port, and a Late Harvest Viognier, and several Meritages. The tasting room was established in 1998 and focuses on Lions Peak's current releases and Library Wines dating back to 1994. The boutique tasting room and hospitality center in Solvang also features artisan wine glasses, wine related gifts, and tapenades.
