Our Story

Image of the Cielo Farms founder and family

Richard Hirsh and his wife Diana instantly fell in love with the surrounding Santa Monica Mountains in 1986 and officially broke ground on the property in 1999. Their passion for entrepreneurship and steadfast dedication to the wine making process has culminated in both the Woodstock & Estate Wine Collections.  Having planted their first grapes in 2001, their current varietals include Viognier, Syrah, Petite Syrah, Cabernet, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petite Verdot.

Over the last two decades, Cielo Farms has grown to include a wine club, reservations-only tasting room, and a sought after special events & filming space.  This Tuscan-inspired estate currently spans over 40+ acres, boasts expansive views of the Malibu Hills, and offers unmatched serenity and seclusion amongst the hundreds of olive trees.  Whether you’re looking for a day pass to this exclusive “wineyard”, to join our wine club, or inquire about a unique event space, the Hirsh family warmly invites you to Cielo Farms. The sky and our little slice of heaven awaits you.
