Cerro Prieto Vineyard And Cellars

We were delighted to read  Steve Heimoff's write-up of Paso Robles in the October 2009 issue of Wine Enthusiast Magazine. Here is an exerpt on the Templeton Gap where our vineyard is located:

"Whether Paso Robles someday divides into 12, or 15, or whatever the number of new appellations will be, remains to be seen. But one thing is predictable: there will be high-rent districts, and one of them will be Willow Creek, in the western elevations of the Santa Lucias, and a beneficiary of the Templeton Gap maritime influences. Here are the vineyards of Saxum, L'Aventure, Cerro Prieto, Linne Colodo, Jack Creek and Villa Creek, among others All produce red wines with a recognizable signature: lush and decadent in fruit, yet controlled and balanced."
