Santa Barbara Wine Tour

In Fall we'll head to one of the most scenic places to drink the best Pinot Noir, Syrah, and Chardonnay's being produced in the USA and some would say the world! Not only will the weather be perfect, but we will arrive just near the end of harvest. Meaning the option to be involved with picking grapes, working in the cellar or foot stomping grapes has never been more real. We'll have personalized service with the region’s best winemakers, owners and chefs. The real story will be the intimate group in a laid back, high end travel experience like no other. 

The agenda includes.......

Cheese and wine tasting with Dick and Jenny Dore, owners of Foxen Winery.

Tastings from barrels and current vintages with Brian Talley, owner of Talley Vineyards.

4 wheel drive truck tour of Stolpman vineyards, followed with lunch at the winery with Peter Stolpman.

A vertical wine tasting followed by dinner in the vineyard with Chad Melville of Melville Winery.

A hands on wine blending session with Andrew Murray.

Tasting and lunch with owner Jeff Nelson of Liquid Farms.

And a Grande Finale "La Paulee" dinner at Industrial Eats!!!!!

Agenda could vary depending on health guidelines or local laws.

To top this off our accommodation's will be the award winning For Friends Inn in Santa Ynez.
