The property is approved for wine production of up to 120,000 gallons annually with additional permits from the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and the Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC). At least 25 percent of the fruit must be sourced directly from the property, but the remaining 75 percent may be obtained from off site sources. A minimum of 50 percent must be grown within San Diego County, with the potential for adding additional vineyards within the County to include as on-site. The vineyard produces Muscat Canelli, Petite Sirah, and Sangiovese grapes. The winery has been making single varietal wines from its vineyards and off site vineyards, including specialty blends such as the award-winning 5150 Red Blend. Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel used in Keys Creek wines is sourced from off site vineyards. Keys Creek has also developed innovative offerings, including the “Slow Burn” Jalapeño Muscat, reflecting both creativity and established brand recognition. The estate carries the trademarked Keys Creek Winery label, recognized in the local market for both traditional varietals and unique specialty wines. The label is an opportunity for a future owner to continue brand development and expand production and distribution. The property holds a permit allowing hosted events, with ample parking. The entitlements were all approved before the new “vehicle miles traveled” standard took effect. With future road improvements, the number of permitted events may be significantly increased. The event facility design features spaces with amenities to accommodate both indoor and outdoor gatherings, including flexible areas for large groups, multiple restrooms, and infrastructure designed to support seamless operations. Food service is permitted through a County Health–approved caterer. Additionally, one mobile food facility or food truck may be allowed on the winery premises during events to serve guests. The property’s current septic approval supports current use and possible expansion with county health department approval.
