| Arroyo Seco Wine Country |
|
The two most renowned Arroyo Seco wineries are owned by Douglas Meador (Ventana Vineyards) and Bill Jekel (Jekel Vineyards). These men have been instrumental in establishing Arroyo Seco Wine Country’s reputation as a wine region. Meador and Jekel both sell their excellent wines at very fair prices.
Arroyo Seco Wine is produced in a transitional climate. Arroyo Seco Wineries are on the border of cooler, foggier weather to the northwest, and hotter, sunnier weather to the southeast. Learn more about the weather of Arroyo Seco Wine Country and how it affects local vineyards.

Professional Reviews
Delicate and a touch raw, with spicy pear, green apple and spice notes that are medium-weight, showing a touch of smoky oak.

|
GGW Tasting Notes
Aromas of tropical fruit, fresh apple and nutmeg with luscious flavours of pear, butterscotch and toasted cashew nut. 100% barrel fermented then aged for 12 months in French oak. Enjoy with grilled salmon, creamy pasta dishes and soft or mild cheeses.
