Located just five miles from the Pacific Ocean near San Luis Obispo, Edna Valley Vineyard experiences one of the coolest and longest growing seasons in California. The valley's east-west orientation funnels afternoon sea breezes so the grapes slowly ripen on the vine. This prolonged hangtime allows the grapes to develop generous flavors and outstanding balance. Predominantly sandstone and shale-derived soils contribute mineral nuances to the lush, layered fruit of Edna Valley Vineyard Chardonnay.
