Arroyo Seco AVA
Established 1983
Arroyo Seco has vineyards prized by artisanal producers for their integrity of acidity and moderation of alcohol - qualities tantamount to cold climes of the most extreme West Coast appellations, and what we idealize about the Côte de Beaune - infused by invariable lacings of pungent fruit and distinctively earthy notes all its own.
