The story behind it
Estancia was founded in 1986 with a focus on sourcing fruit from premier California vineyards, particularly within the Monterey and Central Coast regions. The winery built its reputation on delivering high-quality, varietally expressive wines by utilizing meticulous cool-climate cultivation techniques.
Estancia, Spanish for 'estate,' reflects the brand's dedication to estate-concept winemaking where grapes are nurtured from vineyard to bottle. The cool, ocean-influenced climate of California's Central Coast allows the Merlot grapes to develop intense flavor complexity and elegant structure.
