About Caelesta Vineyard
Caelesta Vineyard takes its name from the Latin caelestis — heavenly, of the sky, belonging to the celestial realm. The name is both poetic and topographically appropriate: the Peachy Canyon Road estate occupies elevated Adelaida District terrain where the views extend across the Santa Lucia Range to the Pacific on clear days, and where the sky feels closer than at lower elevations.
The Latin-heavenly naming establishes an aspiration — wines that aspire upward, that reflect something larger than the grape or the terroir alone. The Adelaida District's calcareous limestone soils and elevated position produce Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre of unusual mineral complexity and structural elevation.
The appointment-only tasting experience is intimate and celestially-themed, consistent with a winery whose founding aspiration was reaching for something transcendent in a bottle of Paso Robles Rhône.
