The Saucelito Canyon story begins in 1880, when three acres of Zinfandel vines were planted in the rugged terrain of the upper Arroyo Grande Valley on California’s Central Coast.

A new chapter was written a century later, when Bill Greenough painstakingly restored the abandoned old vineyard and began making what has become one of California’s most distinguished Zinfandels.
Our story continues today as we merge new methods in sustainable winegrowing with our own family traditions and winemaking style, which we collectively call the "Saucelito Way."

In our wines, you will discover flavors that are native only to our historic dry-farmed vineyard in the remote chaparral of Saucelito Canyon. This is a place that we call home, and a place that we are honored to share with you.Our historic dry-farmed vineyard is more than a mere source of grapes for us. It is the soul of our Zinfandels. It is what enables us to craft a wine that stands out as unique in character and flavor.

For this reason, our Zinfandels are made, first and foremost, with the intent of capturing the natural personality of our vineyard. Sustainable growing practices and gentle, hands-on winemaking methods are essential to this mission. The resulting Zinfandels are loaded with flavor yet also elegantly balanced, setting them apart from the more rowdy, alcoholic examples of the varietal.
