About
Alapay Cellars is an award-winning winery in Avila Beach, established over two decades ago, producing high-quality, hand-crafted French-oak barrel aged wines from small lots of premium grapes sourced from nearby vineyards. They offer a fun, relaxed, and cozy ocean-themed tasting room atmosphere without reservations or attitude, just steps from the Pacific Ocean. The name Alapay means 'heavenly' in the language of the original Native American inhabitants of California's Central Coast.
