Ranchero Cellars pays homage to the spur-jangling vaqueros of the old west, as well as to the cowboy kitsch culture of 1950s America. The wine style evokes the pastoral history of early California: old vines and dusty fields, shady oaks and goats and chickens, rusty tractors and barbed wire fences.  I like those things.

Based in Paso Robles, Ranchero Cellars is committed to making small batches of wine using unique varietals and time-honored methods. I mean very small batches -- three barrels, made with naturally occurring yeasts, minimal processing:  rounding up what nature gives me using as little rope as possible.

My hope is that you share my wine with your friends, enjoy it, love it, and close the gate on your way out. XXX, Amy Jean
