All About Solomon Hills Vineyard

Located in Santa Maria Valley in Santa Barbara County, the Solomon Hills Vineyard is the closest vineyard to the Pacific Ocean in all of Santa Maria Valley. 

The proximity to the Pacific Ocean leads to coastal fog and cool ocean wind. These marine influences create longer hangtime resulting in rich flavors and crisp acidity. The vineyard is comprised of both valley and hillside vineyards with the hillside vineyards receiving more direct and concentrated sunlight, leading to greater color and flavor in the wine. Given this terrain, grapes from the Solomon Hills Vineyard are all hand harvested. 

The CRU Winery Solomon Hills Vineyard Pinot Noir is known for signature notes of juicy raspberry and black cherry with a long, silky finish. The Solomon Hills Vineyard Chardonnay is a beautiful balance of fruit flavors, delicately integrated oak and soft floral tones.
