Welcome to the Santa Cruz Mountains Winegrowers Association, where you'll discover wines of extraordinary complexity and pedigree. Our region, nestled in the Santa Cruz Mountains, is known for its high-altitude vineyards and unique location at the convergence of coastal mountains, the Pacific Ocean, and the San Francisco Bay. With over 70 wineries and 200 growers, our region produces elegant wines shaped by the elevation and the ocean's cooling influence.

Specializing in pinot noir, chardonnay, and cabernet sauvignon, our small producers create wines with distinct aromas and flavor profiles derived from mineral-rich soils and elevated mountainside vineyards. Experience the beauty of the Santa Cruz Mountains across several days or visits. Just minutes from San Jose and an hour south of San Francisco, our region is easily accessible by car.

Explore idyllic small towns at the base of steep mountain vineyards, offering ample tasting rooms, dining options, and overnight accommodations. Join our wine club and enjoy a rare opportunity to experience wines from different producers within our region, conveniently delivered to your doorstep. With three club options to choose from, you'll have the chance to explore our region and discover both acclaimed producers and under-the-radar brands.
