Valley Information: Leyda Valley is a sub-region of the San Antonio Valley located between the Coastal Mountain Range and the Pacific Ocean. Its gentle coastal hills are characterized by poor soils and very dry climate. The low day-night temperatures differential is due to the maritime influence. This place is ideal for varieties like Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc.
