Region:


San Luis Obispo County

Wedged between the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Lucia foothills, San Luis Obispo County is one of the cool-climate jewels of the Central Coast. With its low-lying vineyards situated about five miles from the coast, this often foggy AVA produces stunning Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, as well as impressive Syrah, Grenache and Viognier. It is also making a name for itself with other aromatic white wine grapes, particularly Spain's zesty Albariño. Not only does the maritime climate here temper the California sun to create a long grape growing season, but the county is also home to shallow, complex soils that help create fruit of great winemaking potential.
