AmByth is the Welsh word meaning 'forever'. We view it as our legacy: to live and farm to our heart's content in Templeton for the remainder of our lives...but also to farm with the future in mind, and the healthy condition of our land being left behind. Consider this written word by George Washington to Marchioness de Lafayette in April of 1784:
"I am now enjoying domestic ease under the shadow of my own Vine, and my own Fig tree, and in a small Villa, with the implements of Husbandry, and Lambkins around me, I expect to glide gently down the stream of life..."
And to Arthur Young in December, 1788:
"...I am led to reflect how much more delightful to an undebauched mind is the task of making improvements on the earth..."
AmByth Estate is Paso Robles' first and only winery to produce Demeter certified Biodynamic wines. We utilize the Biodynamic method of farming to enhance our observations of nautre, and use these intimate insights as tools that allow our 20 acres of vineyards to express their true character through the grapes it produces. We want our grapes to be as unique to AmByth Estate as your thumbprint is to you.
Our estate vineyards comprise more than 20 planted acres to grapevines and olive trees.
