Such a great smaller winery experience. We had a private tasting with owner Erin, who was so friendly and excited to share their wines. The wines were so delicious that we joined the membership! The tasting room is so beautiful and such a nice place to spend some time.

Its terrior offers a diurnal temperature swing, providing optimal growing conditions, coveted by others in the region. The name Defiance holds a dual meaning. It is both a reference to the Faulkner family’s symbol of a falcon and the bold spirit that guides the brand. In September 2020, Defiance Vineyard announced the launching of its estate wine, after seeing their fruit produce wines full of richness and natural balance. The Estate portfolio includes: Petite Sirah, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, and Malbec varieties. Tastings by appointment only.
