Bianchi Winery And Tasting Room

The Bianchi family has a long history of involvement in the wine industry, dating back to 1974 when Glenn and his father, Joseph invested in a winery and vineyard on the banks of the San Joaquin River in the Central Valley of California. Situated on a gentle rise, Bianchi Winery has a commanding view looking west over undulating vineyards dotted with ancient oaks. The state-of-the-art stainless steel fermentation tanks provide the winemaker the latest computerized monitoring system and the option to make select, limited production wines. Similarly, the new barrel room for the French and American oak has the capacity to allow blending and aging of small lots. Nestled in the estate vineyards, Bianchi Tasting Room rises above a waterfall-fed lake that gently laps the stone terraces. The soaring glass walls take advantage of the peaceful surroundings from every angle. It's adjacent vineyards support the belief that it is vital to growing only those varieties of grapes that are best suited to the particular aspect of the land: such as soil, exposure and climate. That is why the Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Syrah and Merlot are planted in the winery's sloping vineyards. These varietals make up our sought-after Reserve Selection. Our Signature Selection wines are made from grapes purchased from the highly recognized vineyards adjoining the Bianchi estate and from other premium growers in and around Paso Robles and the Central Coast. Our long and close relationship with the best growers assures us access to each harvest's top-quality grapes. Our Signature selection comprises of Edna Valley Chardonnay, Paso Robles Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc.
