Pelican Ranch Winery
Description
Pelican Ranch Winery is a small, family owned and operated winery specializing in Rhone and Burgundy style wines from the best vineyards in California. Established in 1997, the winery is located only a few blocks from Monterey Bay which provides the constant, cool, coastal influence that allows for controlled, slow fermentation. The result is rich, full-flavored, complex wines. Pelican Ranch wines are labeled according to their single-vineyard designation. Production is limited to 100 cases from each vineyard.
The winery began its commercial production in a shared facility in Scotts Valley, California. March 28, 2003, marked the opening of their new facility in Santa Cruz. Owners Phil and Peggy Crews love the location of their "city winery." Only 2 blocks off Highway 1 in the Swift Street Courtyard, Pelican Ranch is easy to find whether you're a "local" or a weekend visitor. The Courtyard, adjacent to Kelly's French Bakery, is the perfect spot to relax with lunch and a bottle of wine. Pelican Ranch is minutes away from the best Santa Cruz has to offer - Pacific Garden Mall, Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, West Cliff Drive and Natural Bridges State Park.
