What you’ll find

What Cayucos Cellars is known for

Cayucos native Stuart Selkirk learned winemaking from a Swiss neighbor and started commercial production in 1996, fermenting with wild yeast and aging in neutral oak barrels for three to six years. The family operation bottles just 500 to 800 cases a year with very low sulfites, drawing fruit from its ranch vineyard and other Central Coast sites.
