Our clientele are located throughout the Santa Cruz Mountains and foothills and span the counties of San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Santa Cruz. They range from long time wine aficionados to newcomers with emerging passions for wines and vineyards. Regardless of different experiences, tastes, and preferences, our clients all share a common desire to enrich their properties with beautifully landscaped estate vineyards. Some enjoy their vineyards for the aesthetics; others continue the enjoyment with wines made from their homegrown grapes. Coastal Range Vineyards welcomes all levels of client involvement and is eager to help train and educate budding growers and winemakers.
