Founded by ninth-generation Californian James Ontiveros, whose family roots in Santa Maria stretch back to 1855, Alta Maria is a love letter to the appellation — light, fresh, and savory by design. Drawn from three iconic sustainably farmed sites, tart cranberry, raspberry, and pomegranate meet charcuterie smoke and cracked peppercorn on the nose, while the palate delivers sagebrush, wild cherry, and white pepper spice — quintessentially Santa Maria.
Pair with Oak-grilled salmon, mushroom risotto, or roast duck.
