Central Coast

California's Central Coast wine region stretches approximately 250 miles from San Francisco to Santa Barbara, encompassing diverse AVAs including Paso Robles, Santa Barbara, Monterey, and Santa Cruz Mountains. The cool maritime climate, influenced by Pacific fog and breezes, creates ideal conditions for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in cooler areas, while warmer inland zones excel with Rhône and Bordeaux varieties. The region is known for elegant Pinot Noir, structured Syrah, vibrant Chardonnay, and increasingly respected Cabernet Sauvignon from Paso Robles.

White

Zillamina White brings together the best of both worlds – Chardonnay's familiar appeal and structure with Viognier's exotic aromatics and texture. This California blend shows how thoughtful winemaking can create something greater than the sum of its parts. The playful name suggests a wine that doesn't take itself too seriously, but there's serious craftsmanship in the bottle. The Central Coast's cool-climate influence provides the perfect environment for these varieties to develop flavor while maintaining freshness. This isn't an oak-bomb Chardonnay or an over-the-top aromatic white – it's a balanced, food-friendly wine that offers broad appeal without sacrificing character. Perfect for those looking to step outside the usual varietal boxes without venturing too far from the familiar.
