Fame, wealth, and a love of fine wine make for a powerful combination.
Over the past few decades, Hollywood’s biggest stars have been quietly building wine empires alongside their entertainment careers — buying vineyards, launching brands, and proving that their passion for the grape is about far more than a celebrity name on a label. Here are the Hollywood celebrities who own the most impressive vineyards and wineries in the world.
1. Brad Pitt — Miraval, Provence, France
Brad Pitt’s Château Miraval is one of the most celebrated celebrity-owned wineries in the world — and for reasons that have nothing to do with his fame.
Located in the breathtaking Provence region of southern France, Miraval produces a rosé wine that wine critics consistently rank among the finest in the world. The estate spans over 1,200 acres of forest, olive groves, and vineyards, with production overseen by the prestigious Perrin family — one of the most respected winemaking dynasties in France. Miraval rosé sells out within hours of each new release. The wine stands completely on its own merits — and that is the highest compliment a celebrity wine can receive.

2. Francis Ford Coppola — Inglenook, Napa Valley
The Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola is the original Hollywood winemaker — and arguably the most serious one.
Coppola purchased his first portion of the historic Inglenook estate in Napa Valley in 1975, using proceeds from The Godfather. Over the following decades he gradually reassembled the entire original Inglenook property — restoring one of California’s most historic and prestigious wine estates to its former glory. He also produces a popular range of wines under the Francis Ford Coppola label and a line named Sofia after his director daughter. Coppola did not just buy a vineyard — he rebuilt a legend.
3. Cameron Diaz — Avaline Wine
Cameron Diaz co-founded Avaline in 2020 alongside entrepreneur Katherine Power — and built it into one of the most talked-about celebrity wine brands in America within months.
What set Avaline apart from the beginning was its commitment to transparency — clearly labeling ingredients and production methods at a time when the wine industry offered consumers almost no such information. Diaz was motivated by her own desire to know exactly what she was drinking. The brand offers clean, organic wines free from unnecessary additives, and its combination of genuine quality and celebrity profile made it an instant commercial success. Avaline proved that a celebrity wine brand could stand for something real.
4. Drew Barrymore — Barrymore Wines
Drew Barrymore launched her wine brand with the same warmth and approachability she brings to everything else — and built a loyal following doing it.
Barrymore Wines produces a range of accessible, food-friendly California wines that reflect her personal taste rather than chasing critical prestige. She has been deeply involved in the branding, packaging, and communication of the brand from the beginning — treating it as a genuine creative project rather than a passive endorsement deal. Her Pinot Grigio and red blends have received strong reviews and consistent sales, establishing Barrymore Wines as one of Hollywood’s most genuinely sustainable celebrity wine ventures.
5. Sam Neill — Two Paddocks, New Zealand
Sam Neill — best known to the world as Dr. Alan Grant in Jurassic Park — owns one of New Zealand’s most respected boutique wineries in the stunning Central Otago region.
Two Paddocks was established in 1993 and has grown into a critically acclaimed producer of Pinot Noir — the notoriously difficult grape that Central Otago has made its signature variety. Neill is genuinely hands-on in the operation, visiting the vineyard regularly and taking a deep personal interest in every vintage. His winery is not a celebrity side project — it is a serious, award-winning wine estate that would be celebrated regardless of who owned it.
6. Jessica Biel — Prophet and Poet
Jessica Biel launched her wine brand Prophet and Poet in 2025 — one of Hollywood’s most recent and carefully considered vineyard ventures.
The brand was created in partnership with acclaimed Napa winemaker Jesse Katz and Jackson Family Wines, with grapes sourced from Sonoma County. Biel named the label after her brother and sister-in-law — giving it a personal meaning that goes beyond commercial ambition. The initial 2021 vintage was released in May 2025 to positive reviews, and the brand’s commitment to quality production methods from the very beginning suggests it is built for longevity rather than a quick celebrity cash-in.
7. Madonna — Ciccone Vineyard and Winery
Madonna’s family roots run deep in the wine business — deeper than most people realize.
Her father Silvio Ciccone established Ciccone Vineyard and Winery in Suttons Bay, Michigan in 1995 — a family-run estate that produces a range of wines including Pinot Grigio, Riesling, and various red blends. Madonna has supported the venture throughout its history, and the winery continues to operate as a genuine family enterprise rather than a celebrity brand. It is a refreshingly grounded venture from one of entertainment’s most extravagant personalities — and the wines regularly earn solid regional recognition.
8. John Legend — LVE Collection
John Legend launched his LVE Collection in 2015 through a partnership with Napa Valley’s Raymond Vineyards and renowned winemaker Jean-Charles Boisset — and built it into one of the most commercially successful celebrity wine brands in America.
Legend contributed genuine creative input on the blends — working directly with the winemaking team on Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and sparkling wines rather than simply licensing his name. The collection has grown steadily since launch and is now widely available across the United States. Legend treats the wine as an extension of his artistic identity — and the quality of the product reflects that seriousness of intent.
