Viña Loriente
Groundbreaking yet traditional authentic Spanish tempranillo and verdejo grown in the USA.
Welcome to Viña Loriente, a seven-acre, family-owned estate vineyard, nestled in the heart of the Santa Ynez Valley, California.
At Viña Loriente, we take great pride in producing the most authentic expression of Spanish Tempranillo and Verdejo in North America.
OUR VINEYARD
Approximately thirty miles from the Pacific Ocean,Viña Loriente is part of the newly established Los Olivos District AVA in Santa Barbara County, named Wine Region of the Year in 2021 by Wine Enthusiast.
Viña Loriente benefits from an ideal soil and climate to grow its Tempranillo and Verdejo. We adhere strictly to sustainable, centuries old practices. Our farming follows biodynamic principles, irrigating judiciously, avoiding pesticides/herbicides, and respecting biodiversity by not tilling the soil. We farm not just the vineyard but the soil and all the biomes below.
OUR WINES
Deeply steeped in Old World tradition but brimming with a West Coast pioneer spirit, Viña Loriente’s wines reflect our family’s unique, Spanish-California identity.
For us, winemaking is not a “science” to be conducted in a lab, but more of an intuitive art form based on accumulated experience, passed on and perfected from generation to generation.
