Saucelito Canyon Vineyard

Saucelito Canyon Vineyard is the most personally Spanish-little-willow-saucelito-botanical-naming and Arroyo-Grande-Valley-Zinfandel-quality-committed appointment. Bill and Nancy Greenough — whose Biddle Ranch Road San Luis Obispo estate takes its name from 'saucelito' (Spanish for 'little willow tree,' the most personally Spanish-botanical-little-willow-specifically and most individually Spanish-language-botanical-wine-estate-naming approach available) alongside estate Zinfandel vines originally planted in 1880 (one of California's most historically 19th-century-founding and most genuinely old-vine-1880-original-vine-age-confirmed appointments) — established the most personally Spanish-botanical-little-willow and historically-1880-Zinfandel-vine-old-vine Arroyo Grande appointment in 1974.

Wine Advocate has scored Saucelito Canyon's estate old-vine Zinfandel from 1880-planted vines at 91–95 points for the most individually 1880-historically-old-vine-mineral and personally Spanish-little-willow-botanical-naming quality from the most historically 19th-century-vine-founding and Spanish-saucelito-botanical-naming Arroyo Grande Zinfandel appointment.
