Glunz
Glunz operates in Paso Robles, the Central Coast's most dynamic wine region, where warm days and cooling maritime influence shape powerful reds and distinctive fortified wines. The winery's portfolio centers on Syrah, Zinfandel, and the fortified Mission Angelica—grapes that thrive in San Luis Obispo County's varied microclimates. White Hawk Vineyard Syrah and Paper Street Vineyard Zinfandel anchor the range, wines that have drawn attention from Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate. Mission Angelica, a fortified expression of the Mission grape, represents the region's historical connection to early California viticulture. Paso Robles' elevation and diurnal temperature swings favor the concentration and structure these varieties demand, allowing Glunz to explore both the bold, fruit-forward character the region is known for and the textural complexity that defines serious Central Coast winemaking.
