De Tierra

Central Coast Cabernet Franc and Riesling with Wine Enthusiast recognition.

De Tierra draws from California's Central Coast, a region defined by maritime influence and diverse soils that shape wines of precision and balance. The winery's portfolio spans Cabernet Franc, Riesling, and Cabernet Sauvignon—each expressing the terroir's particular character. The Russell Estate Cabernet Franc and Riesling both achieve 91-point ratings from Wine Enthusiast, while the Cabernet Sauvignon reaches 90 points, demonstrating the winery's command across red and white varieties. The Central Coast's cool nights and warm days create conditions for wines with structure and acidity, and De Tierra's selections reflect that dynamic. Whether exploring the mineral precision of the Riesling or the darker fruit and tannin architecture of the Cabernet Franc, these wines offer the complexity that defines serious California winemaking.
