PEOPLE <\/strong><\/p>\n

Located just fourteen miles from the Pacific Ocean, Halter Ranch is owned by Hansjoerg Wyss, a Swiss philanthropist dedicated to land conservation. This state-of-the-art gravity flow winery is a dream facility for winemaker, Kevin Sass, and associate winemaker, Molly Lonborg, who have both been with Halter Ranch since 2011. Longborg lives on the property and she also manages the quarter-acre employee garden, funded by Halter Ranch. Lucas Pope is the vineyard manager.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

VINEYARDS <\/strong><\/p>\n

13 grape varieties grow on a dozen different limestone-based soils. In addition to vine acreage, the Halter Ranch also owns 1,700 acres of preserved forest. They have been SIPP Certified Sustainable since 2008. To protect local animals, a three mile long wildlife corridor leads to a water source at Adeleida Spring. Bat boxes, owl boxes, and raptor perches abound. Insects aren\u2019t forgotten either: there\u2019s a beneficial garden for bees and butterflies.<\/p>\n

WINES <\/strong><\/p>\n

The house style is fresh and carefully crafted wine. The Grenache Blanc 2016<\/strong> includes a small percentage of Picpoul Blanc and Viognier. It has notes of green apple and pear with a creamy finish from 4 months on the lees. The Co\u0302tes de Paso 2015 (Everyday wine)<\/strong> is a nod to Co\u0302tes du Rho\u0302ne style blends and leads with 75% Grenache supported by Mourvedre, Syrah, and Tannat. Red and black cherry, clove, and leather lead to a smooth finish. The Cabernet Sauvignon 2016<\/strong> includes some Malbec and Petit Verdot. Aged 18 months in 40% new French oak. It\u2019s all rich black fruit with a touch of chocolate leading to a soft finish.<\/p>\n
