The Daly Creek Winery is located in a building built
originally as a creamery in the 1950's. It's terra cotta
floors with numerous floor drains, glazed tile walls,
14' high ceilings and cold storage areas lends itself
ideally to a winery operation. The winery production
area is visible from the tasting room through two large
viewing windows.
Daly Creek is currently producing about 6,000 gallons of
wine annually in six varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon,
Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, White Zinfandel, Niagara,
and a sweet Cherry. Our newest variety, a Sauvignon Blanc blend, is named "Gothic White" in honor of
Anamosa's most famous resident, the artist Grant Wood.
Winery tours are available explaining the wine making
process, from fermentation, clarification and aging, to
the bottling operation.
