Spanish Springs Vineyard: The Spanish Springs Vineyard is located two miles east of Pismo Beach. This vineyard is nestled behind a small mountain that shields it from the ocean winds. This is one of the best vineyards for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in San Luis Obispo County. Typically this vineyard tops out at 80 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and quickly cools off at night. Its proximity to the ocean brings a slight breeze on most days which helps with rachis elongation and disease mitigation. The South facing Spanish Springs boasts long hang-time without becoming overripe. One of the benefits of this site in particular is its ability to produce lush flavors and aromas, great mouthfeel, and racy acidity.
