A Spring Sparkling Wine Tasting on the Ocean in Pismo Beach
The San Luis Obispo Coastal Wine region (SLO Coast Wine) is one of California’s coolest wine growing regions. The 30+ wineries in this area are an average of only 5 miles from the ocean! Coastal fog, wind, soil, and sun create wines refined by the Pacific’s influence. This makes for energetically acidic and complex wines, with a large number of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir producers, cool-climate Syrah, plus the Spanish white grape Albariño.

This area is also perfect growing conditions for the classic Champagne grapes! There are over 20 producers of cool-climate Sparkling Wine in the SLO Coast American Viticulture Area (AVA). And every spring, the SLO Coast Wine Collective holds a Sunday Sparkling Wine Down at the ocean, as well as a full day of educational tastings, winemaker lunches and a fun, walk-around tasting of all kinds of wine on Saturday.
This year, the SLO Coast Wine Classic is being held April 6-7, 2024 in Pismo Beach, highlighting the uniqueness of the wine community on the San Luis Obispo Coast.
