Ancient Peaks
Ancient Peaks Winery specializes in family-grown wines that offer a singular taste of Paso Robles on California's Central Coast.
Our winery is owned by three local winegrowing families—the Filipponis, Rossis and Wittstroms—who joined forces to pursue their mutual dream of crafting remarkable wines from their own vineyards in Paso Robles. Ancient Peaks Winery was established in 2005, and the first wines were released in the summer of 2007.
The name Ancient Peaks is a tribute to the geologic heritage of San Luis Obispo County, which is most evident in the rugged volcanic peaks that cast impressive shadows across the region. The ancient forces behind these peaks also gave rise to the fossilized soils and climate-shifting terrain that shape our wines.
Our wines hail exclusively from four family-owned vineyards in Paso Robles, with the majority coming from Margarita Vineyard, the appellation’s southernmost vineyard. This vineyard resides in the historic Santa Margarita Ranch, which was first planted to vines by Franciscan missionaries in 1774.
Our ability to expertly control all phases of winegrowing and winemaking is the basis for what we call Peak Flavor, which is the pursuit of integrity, quality and value in every bottle.
