Our host for the 2026 Meet Your Makers party, April 25th is Caliza Winery. Here is a brief description of this winery. Let's get to know a bit about them!

Caliza Winery is a small, family-owned boutique estate in the Willow Creek District of Paso Robles, California, known for its focus on Rhône-style varietals and sustainable farming.

Why Choose Caliza Vineyards?

Unique Terroir: The name "Caliza" is Spanish for "limestone", referencing the distinct soil found on the 60-acre property. This limestone, combined with the cooling marine breezes of the Templeton Gap, allows the grapes to maintain high acidity and achieve "prime phenolic maturity".

Rhône Valley Focus: Inspired by a 2004 trip to France, owners Carl and Pam Bowker craft bold yet elegant Rhône Valley wines, including Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Viognier.

Sustainable Practices: The vineyard is farmed sustainably and organically, without the use of pesticides or herbicides. They use cover crops to promote biodiversity and reduce irrigation needs, encouraging vines to root deeper into the limestone soils.

Boutique Experience: As a small-production winery (approx. 3,000 cases annually), Caliza offers a more personal, "low-key" atmosphere compared to larger commercial tasting rooms. It is often described as a "hidden gem" where the owner/winemaker frequently pours for guests.
