Bench Break Vineyard

Bench Break Vineyard sits on the highest point of the family-owned Cambria Estate Winery. Formed from ancient eroded Monterey shale and quartz, the Bench Break Vineyard soils are the shallowest on the estate - restricting vine vigor and promoting fruit growth with smaller berries and more concentrated flavors. Maritime influences funnel in from the Pacific Ocean, cloaking the Santa Maria Bench in mild temperatures and extending the growing season. The Bench Break wines are rich, intense, powerful and concentrated.
