The Vineyard

Loma Linda Vineyard

The Franscioni family has been farming in the Salinas Valley since 1886. Ray Franscioni planted vineyards more than 20 years ago and now farms nearly 1,000 acres in the Santa Lucia Highlands appellation. Loma Linda Vineyard is southern part of the appellation on southeast-facing terraces of the Santa Lucia Mountain range overlooking the Salinas River Valley. The vineyards receive morning sun exposure before being influenced by the daily fog and ocean breezes 28 miles from Monterey Bay.
