Soberanes Vineyard

Soberanes Vineyard is a world-class site located in the Santa Lucia Mountains of Monterey County, California. The Pisoni and Franscioni families, who have deep roots in the area, planted the 38-acre vineyard in 2008 with Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Syrah. The vineyard sits on an eastward-facing alluvial terrace that gently slopes down to the valley floor, providing ideal drainage and root penetration. The soil is composed of Arroyo Seco Sandy Loam. The morning fog and cool, steady winds from the nearby Monterey Bay provide a long and steady growing season. 27 acres are planted with Pinot Noir, nearly all of which is Pisoni clone, with just a small section of 667 clone. The vineyard is hand-farmed by the Pisoni and Franscioni families using old-world growing practices.
