Encantado
Encantado
"˜Encantado' comes from the southernmost vineyard Ashanta worked with in 2022, located just 5.5 miles from the U.S./Mexican border in Dulzura, CA, which sits at 1,800 feet in the lower Peninsular Range. The region is surrounded by steep mountains and has unique soils formed from volcanic rocks that cooled over 90 million years ago. With a significant diurnal temperature shift and a consistent Pacific Ocean breeze, the climate keeps the vines cool in the summer heat.
