One of our favorite site-specific wines: Block B…
Always 100% Syrah. Always 100% Paderewski. Always 100% Block 13. The fruit for this wine hails from clone 174 vines grown on the east-facing Block 13, known as Block B, within our Paderewski Vineyard.
Does anyone know the story of how Block B got its name?

The History behind our Paderewski Vineyard…
When we purchased our Paderewski Vineyard in 2004, not only did we hit the jackpot as far as soils and views were concerned, we were also buying a property that was once owned, planted, and cherished by Polish pianist and Prime Minister, Ignacy Jan Paderewski.
They don’t come much greater than Ignacy Jan Paderewski, and we are honored to bring back to life the vineyard he loved so much in his American home away from home, Paso Robles, California. Paderewski was an unparalleled pianist, an American and Polish patriot, a poet, a generous philanthropist, a Polish citizen, a politician and of course, a Paso Roblan!

From Historic Ruin to Revitalized Gem: York Mountain Winery`s Journey
Holding a well-storied past, the historic York Mountain Winery was established in 1882, making it the first bonded winery on the Central Coast. Over the next 120 years, this Winery lived through Prohibition, a handful of name changes, various owners (most often within the York family who owned it until 1970), many, many bottles of wine, and so much more. Through it all, the Winery operated continuously until 2001.
In 2003, the San Simeon Earthquake hit California causing York Mountain Winery catastrophic damage that left this beloved building condemned. In 2010, Bill and Liz Armstrong purchased the property out of foreclosure with the intent of revitalizing this historic landmark and making it part of our Epoch story. After years of restoration and permitting, York Mountain Winery finally opened again in December 2016 as our new Tasting Room.
Come visit our tasting room to experience this incredible story, architecture & history firsthand…

Experience our York Mountain wines…
Discover the unique terroir of York vineyard with sand and sandstone soils, moderate climate and foggy mornings due to its proximity to the Pacific Ocean. With double the rainfall and cool breezes, this elevated vineyard stands out from our other locations at Paderewski and Catapult. Join us for a York Mountain Tasting or purchase a bottle (or two) or York wines on our online store!
The York family saw something special in this vineyard site 100+ years ago, and we are now blessed to grow Epoch fruit on these storied soils.
In the spring of 2015, after much dreaming and planning, we began planting vines at this “cool climate” site (colder than Burgundy). Located just seven miles from the Pacific Ocean at an elevation of 1,500 feet, this property falls in the small 640 acre York Mountain AVA, which is outside of the very large Paso Robles AVA.
What’s old is new again…
