About Us

Puma Road at Portola Plaza is a wine tasting room across from the Portola Hotel offering wine by the glass and bottle, charcuterie and small bites, and live music. We are a dog-friendly business.

Puma Road wines are crafted from 100% estate grown grapes. Owner Ray Franscioni is a third generation Salinas Valley farmer who reserves 5% of the output from his 1600 acres of vineyards to create exclusive wines for the Puma Road label. We are a small family winery producing approximately 5000 cases per year under the guidance of winemakers Olivier Rousset and Rodney Whitlock.
