From the business:
Wines under the Santa Barbara Winery label range from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir to lesser known but memorable varietals such as Negrette and Lagrein.The tasting room - located two blocks from the Pacific Ocean in downtown Santa Barbara - a site that doubles as a production (all of the white wines are processed from grape to bottle there) and warehouse facility.
The Lafond Vineyards located in the western Santa Ynez Valley were planted in 1971 and were one of the first in the county.
Winemaker Bruce McGuire was brought on board in 1981.
The tasting room and barrel room are available for private events.
Closed Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day and New Years Day
History
Established in 1962.
In 1962, Pierre Lafond opened Santa Barbara Winery - the first commercial winery to open in Santa Barbara County post-prohibition.
Review from Yelp:
"I've been a big fan of Santa Barbara Winery for quite some time, and find many of their wines (along with sister company Lafond) fantastic.
Their tasting room is a block off State Street located in what I believe is the "Funk Zone," which is an absolutely horrible name. The pourers at the tasting room are friendly, knowledgeable, and best of all, if you ask for something off menu, they'll often oblige -- if the bottle is open.
As for what to drink, they're known for their Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. I'm learning to appreciate whites, but it was never an issue with the Reserve Chardonnay, as it stands as one of my all time favorites. I am also a big fan of their Sangiovese, Cabernet and Nebbiolo.
Overall, I just highly recommend. If you do happen to walk in for a tasting there is a very good chance you'll walk out with a few bottles in hand."
