Santa Barbara Winery

This is an awesome winery! I visit this winery every time I come to Santa Barbara. My favorite for sure is the 2002 Pinot Noir. It is a medium body, perfect acidity, with a slightly berry aroma and finishes so smoothly! You cannot go wrong with this perfect wine. I believe this winery is owned by or run by the same people who run LaFond which happens to be one of my other favorites! Whether you are a local Santa Barbarian or a tourist visiting, this is a must stop location.

This is a great tasting room to stop into during a trip to State Street. Their wines are good and fairly priced, but the tasting room is consistently crowded and busy. The tasting space is much to small to accommodate the high volume of traffic that comes in. I've visited there 4 times on different days of the week and it's always been crowded. The staff seem knowledgeable, but if you're looking for a lot of attention and education while you taste wine, this is not the place to get it. However, this is a great place for first timers or tasters intimidated by the process; you'll get good wines at a good price without any pressure.
