Soberanes Vineyard, Santa Lucia Highlands
Located right next door to the famed Garys' Vineyard, the Soberanes Vineyard is also owned by the longtime
collaboration of the Pisoni and Franscioni Families. With three generations of farming in the Salinas Valley,
they have a multi-generational commitment to sustainable agriculture to insure future generations can
continue the tradition.
The Santa Lucia Highlands sit along the foothills of the Santa Lucia Mountain Range in Monterey County.
The Soberanes Vineyard is named after 16-year old Jose Maria Soberanes, who was part of the famed
Portola Expedition of 1769. It is one of five vineyards that are part of the Pisoni and Franscioni families:
Garys', Rosella's, Pisoni, Soberanes and Sierra Mar.
Great attention is given to the care of the vines in the Soberanes Vineyard - positioning the grapes, shoots
and leaves by hand to absorb the prominent flavor of this unique vineyard. The windy afternoons, warm
sun and cool influence of the Pacific Ocean, contribute to the perfect conditions for creating world class
Pinot Noirs, Chardonnays and Syrahs.

USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Central Coasthttp://www.ccwinegrowers.org/links.html
