Wine from Baja California

Located in the northern part of the State of Baja California, the Baja California Wine Country is blessed with the ideal Mediterranean climate for grape growing. There are few microclimates in Mexico that combine the unique characteristics of elevation, soil, seasons, and temperature. And, of course, love for the art of winemaking.

The Kiliwa and Kumiai native people originally settled this region of Baja California. The Kumiai are still present in the communities of San Antonio Nécua and San José de la Zorra. The first outsiders were Spanish missionaries and settlers from other parts of Mexico, followed by immigrants from Russia and the rest of Europe. These diverse influences contribute to the unique character of the Baja California Wine Country.
