At the heart of Alamo Creek Ranch is a 40-acre vineyard, producing premium Grenache, Syrah, and Sauvignon Blanc grapes, both head trained and on wire. These varietals are carefully cultivated using sustainable farming practices, including low tillage and the use of owl boxes for natural pest control. The vineyard includes both cordon and cane trellised vines, some of which are own-rooted, offering a unique connection to the land and terroir. Complimenting the vineyard is 7,000 cubic square feet of refrigerated wine storage.
Alamo Creek Ranch is more than a vineyardit's a place of profound natural beauty, where ancient oak woodlands and rolling hills meet a carefully cultivated landscape. The entire property is under a conservation easement to preserve its legacy for future generations. With an emphasis on environmental stewardship, the vineyard coexists with native wild turkeys and two herds of Tule Elk that roam the property. The ranch is also home to critically endangered California Condor nesting sites, adding to its ecological significance.
Whether you're looking to produce your own premium wines, embrace rural luxury living, or steward a historic and ecologically significant property, Alamo Creek Ranch offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. With its deep-rooted history, commitment to sustainable farming, and unparalleled setting, this estate truly represents the essence of California's Central Coast.
