This is Pinot Noir with a Pacific breeze and a poet’s soul. It has sand between its toes and salt on its skin.
A Tribute to the Coast
Shaped not by opulence, but by the quiet pull of the ocean, this wine captures a different rhythm of California winemaking. Grown in vineyards scattered across San Luis Obispo’s coastal hills, it expresses delicate notes of tart cherry, wild raspberry, and rose petals over a savory undercurrent of black tea and that unmistakable saline kiss.
Whole-cluster fermentation brings spice and aromatic lift, while aging in neutral oak lets the story of place do all the talking. ‘Vino de los Ranchos’ is a tribute to the rugged ranchlands of the Central Coast, and to a quieter, more soulful side of Pinot.
How to Enjoy
Its lean, luminous profile is endlessly food-friendly. Pair with duck breast, mushroom dishes, or cedar-plank salmon.
