The winery is a vineyard driven operation that considers itself a foremost proponent of the potential of west side Paso Robles. Adelaida’s wild and rugged mountainside vineyards are loaded with limestone and calcareous shale. According to winemaker Terry Culton, “these characteristics cause the vines to strengthen. This results in added stress on the vines, which lowers the yields but produces more intensely flavored fruit”. In keeping with the winery’s sustainable philosophy, the vineyards are not tilled, encouraging native grasses, wild sage and rosemary to flourish between the rows.

Cantara https://www.cantaracellars.com/
126 Wood Road, Suite 104
Camarillo, CA 93010
Cantara Cellars began as a small winemaking hobby in the garage of Mike and Chris Brown’s Moorpark home. With their home located in the “Cantara” section of the Serenata development it only seemed fitting to name the garage-sized winery “Cantara Cellars”. Over the next four years they carefully selected additional wine grape sources, increased their knowledge of winemaking, refined their wine style, expanded grape varieties, and increased production. This culminated with the opening of a public tasting room in October 2007.

But Napa and the Old World were getting a little crowded. “We wanted open space and big sky.” They found it during a business trip not far from Santa Barbara in a beautiful valley called Happy Canyon.
