Windy Oaks

Central Coast Pinot Noir defined by technique and terroir.

Windy Oaks produces Pinot Noir on California's Central Coast, a region defined by cool maritime influence and limestone-rich soils that shape the grape's characteristic balance of ripe fruit and structural tension. The winery's flagship Terra Narro Pinot Noir, sourced from Schultze Family Vineyard, demonstrates the precision the region affords. Limited releases—a 100% whole cluster expression and a wood tank fermented variant—explore textural and extraction variables within the varietal. Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, and Decanter have rated the portfolio, with the Terra Narro earning particular recognition. The winery's focus remains narrow: Pinot Noir in its various expressions, each shaped by fermentation method and vineyard site.
