David Bruce Winery

David Bruce Winery is a California winery located in the Santa Cruz Mountains AVA above Silicon Valley in Northern California. It was established by dermatologist David Bruce, M.D. in 1964. David Bruce Winery has earned an international reputation throughout more than four decades for its dedication to producing the greatest Pinot Noir in the world. 2024 marks their 60th Anniversary.

David Bruce Winery was one of 12 California wineries to participate in the now famous 1976 “Judgment of Paris,” in which California Cabernets and Chardonnays outscored French Bordeaux and Burgundies in a blind tasting in France. Since then, David Bruce wines have consistently taken top honors in competitive tastings.

Today, wines are produced from the winery’s 45-acre estate vineyard featuring plantings of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling, and Syrah, as well as from fruit sourced from over 30 of the best growers in Northern and Central California and representing 6 appellations. The breadth and diversity of grape sources have given David Bruce Winery experience in creating a broad range of wines and has firmly established the winery as one of the leading premium winemakers on the international stage.
