Established in 2001, Colcanyon Estate Wines were amongst the early entrants in the up and coming Santa Monica Mountain wineries. Located 2000 feet above Malibu, the vineyard is situated on a south facing slope with uninterrupted views of the Pacific Ocean. Our location is as near to perfect for grape growing as it gets. We enjoy a rocky topsoil and a 45 degree south facing slope – the end result are vines that are optimally positioned for even sun exposure throughout the growing period.
The yard benefits from early morning mists that rise up the canyon from the Pacific Ocean immediately below – nature’s irrigation system that means we add little additional irrigation even in the hottest of summers.
