The acclaimed Santa Margarita Ranch AVA in Paso Robles is one of California’s most intimate and distinctive winegrowing areas.
Here, a persistent marine influence creates a long, late growing season that allows the grapes to develop a signature combination of fully developed flavors and fine structure. Meanwhile, a rare diversity of soil types ensures natural nuance and complexity in the fruit. The resulting wines offer a singular sense of place that is native to the Santa Margarita Ranch AVA.

“Margarita Vineyard is one of the most unique vineyards we visited. It’s unique in terms of geology, terroir, history, and the quality of grapes it produces.”
Santa Margarita is an Essential Part of the Paso Robles AVA
Santa Margarita Ranch stands alone and apart as the southernmost AVA in the Paso Robles region, just 14 miles from the Pacific Ocean. The resulting wines are as distinct as their location.
