Foxen Vineyard & Winery

Whether you’re a seasoned wine aficionado or a casual enthusiast, Foxen Vineyard & Winery offers an inviting atmosphere to explore the artistry of winemaking.   Discover the magic of Foxen’s wines and create lasting memories in one of California’s most beloved wine destinations.

Foxen Vineyard & Winery, nestled in the heart of California’s picturesque Santa Maria Valley, is a premier destination for wine enthusiasts. Established in 1985 by Bill Wathen and Dick Doré, the vineyard spans over 2,000 acres of scenic countryside. They cultivate a diverse selection of high-quality grapes.  Foxen’s rich winemaking tradition, showcases its commitment to crafting exceptional wines that reflect the region’s unique terroir.

Historic Rancho

Bill Wathen and Dick Doré (the Foxen Boys) have been making wine together since 1985. They founded Foxen Vineyard & Winery at the historic Rancho Tinaquaic in Northern Santa Barbara County. Their dedication has remained the same: the creation of small production, sustainably-farmed, vineyard-focused wines using a straightforward and minimalist approach to winemaking.

Named in memory of William Benjamin Foxen, English sea captain and Dick’s great-great grandfather. Benjamin Foxen came to Santa Barbara in the early 1800’s. He purchased the historic Rancho Tinaquaic in 1837 with a Mexican Land Grant that totaled nearly 9000 acres, which comprised most of what is now known as Foxen Canyon. Captain Foxen adopted the distinctive anchor as his ranch cattle brand, which became the trademark of the Foxen Winery. We are proud that we have made our home on the now 2000-acre Rancho Tinaquaic, which remains in family hands.

In addition to its renowned wines, Foxen Vineyard & Winery invites guests to experience its charming tasting room, where they can indulge in guided tastings led by knowledgeable staff.

Farm in Ballard, California

~ Dreamcôte Wine Co ~

Dreamcôte Wine Co

 

Dreamcôte Wine Co. is a small-producer of low alcohol, low sulfur wines + hard ciders. We produce a less traditional range of carbonic red wines like Gamay, a few pétillant-natural “pét-nat” (OG sparkling) wines as well as an annual bottling/kegging of hard apple cider fermented with fruit and botanicals from our small farm in Ballard, CA.

Discover Dreamcôte Wine Co.

At Dreamcôte Wine Co., we believe life’s too short for boring wine! Born in 2012 by a group of passionate ladies, we started with just one ton of Riesling, crafted in a vibrant, off-dry (just a tad sweet) style designed to complement the fiery flavors of spicy Thai food. Fast forward to today, and we’re proudly crafting 1,000 cases of wine and hard cider every year!

We love to play with the unconventional in our little sandbox, and by “experimental,” we mean we’re not sticking to the mainstream. Think carbonic fermentation with quirky varietals like Pinot Noir, Syrah, Mourvedre, Cab Franc, and—finally—Gamay! We’re talking undisgorged pét-nat bubbles and bottle-fermented cider, infused with fruits, hops, and herbs straight from our Ballard farm. It’s our way of taking a tiny escape from tradition—a mini-vacation in a glass. Don’t get us wrong, we adore classic wines, but sometimes you just want to sip something fun with a cocktail umbrella and loosen up a bit!

Our wines and ciders are laid-back, low in sulfur, and low in alcohol, perfect for pairing with your everyday meals—whether it’s burgers, a tomato sandwich, or that “what’s left in the fridge” soup. These are wines meant to be enjoyed now, not saved for a special occasion. After all, life’s for living!

Sip, Savor, and Explore

We’re all about trying new things and believe that wine should be a daily indulgence, shared with friends whenever possible. Wine is meant to be enjoyed, whether on its own or paired with food. So, crack open a bottle, try something new, and who knows? It might just lead you to your next favorite sip!

Visit Our Dreamy Tasting Room

Nestled at the corner of San Marcos and Jonata, our cozy tasting room offers both indoor and outdoor seating in a relaxed, intimate setting. Enjoy a unique flight of 4-5 fruit-driven, easy-drinking wines, which change regularly to keep things fresh! Loved what you tasted? Take a bottle home!

We also offer options by the glass or bottle, so there’s always something to suit your mood. Reservations are highly recommended, especially for parties of four or more—we love starting our day with larger groups!

We can’t wait to share our wines with you—see you soon!

About Los Olivos General Store

They wanted a perfect spot to sell their family wine and to offer gifts and handmade goods. The Larners found it in the historic Los Olivos Garage space in the heart of Los Olivos.

Lucas & Lewellen

Few wineries in California produce 25 different wines, including Bordeaux, Rhône, Burgundy and Italian varietals. But then, few wineries can match the intimate relationship Lucas & Lewellen Vineyards has with Santa Barbara County’s amazing winegrowing potential.

Louis Lucas

Lucas & Lewellen VineyardsCo-founded by viticulturist Louis Lucas and wine enthusiast Royce Lewellen in 1996, this small winery boasts three vineyards totaling 400 acres of vines, in the county’s three main growing regions: Santa Maria Valley, Los Alamos Valley and Santa Ynez Valley. All are meticulously tended by Louis, who planted his first vines here in 1970. With Winemaker Megan McGrath Gates heading up the cellar, little Lucas & Lewellen has become one of Santa Barbara County’s most popular wineries.

The Authentic Nature of Wine

Liquid Farm

The name Liquid Farm describes the authentic nature of wine (liquid from farming), and reflects our strong belief that all great wines start in the vineyard. We focus on wines from one of the coolest of California AVAs: Sta. Rita Hills. It’s home to some of the most unique, ancient soils in North America and is perfect for growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. We allow our wines to develop on their own with little intervention, resulting in well-balanced, food-friendly wines. 

Experience the Mystique

Liquid Farm began with a simple passion: to bring the elegance of European wines right here to California! Tired of not finishing local bottles, we dreamed of creating wines with lower alcohol and earth-driven character. So, we took a leap and decided to make the wine we loved, right in our backyard!

Meet the Team

Jeff Nelson – With 20+ years in the wine world, Jeff has worked with top Champagne and Burgundy houses. His vision for Liquid Farm came alive in 2009 with a little help from Brandon Sparks-Gillis of Dragonette Cellars!

James Sparks – A winemaker with a baker’s heart! James brings precision and passion to every bottle, blending his family’s baking roots with his wine expertise.

Our Journey

We started with four barrels of Chardonnay in 2009, planning to create one wine. But our wine had other ideas! Two barrels became our White Hill Chardonnay, evoking the minerality of Premier Cru Chablis. The other two turned into Golden Slope, reminiscent of the lush, textured wines of Meursault. Since then, we’ve expanded, crafting wines like La Hermana, Four, and our Bandol-inspired Rosé.

Our Mission

Liquid Farm is committed to honoring local viticulture and old-world flavors. We seek purity, acidity, and natural elegance—no shortcuts, just authentic character.

Liquid Farm is about the magic that happens above and below ground. Our label features a dandelion-inspired beet root, crafted by UK artist Val Littlewood, symbolizing the connection between earth and wine. This holiday season, share the story of Liquid Farm—perfect for gatherings and festive toasts!

Come try our world-class wines in our beautiful Los Olivos tasting room! No appointment needed.

Chanin Wine Co.

Chanin Wine Co., dedicated to crafting wines from Santa Barbara County. These wines reflect the individual vineyard in which they are grown. We focus on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. For example, two grapes that are especially revealing of subtle differences in geography, geology and climate. Our grapes,  grown in Santa Barbara County, where cool coastal winds, diverse marine based soils and a long growing season provide an exciting and unique environment for Burgundian varieties.

Chanin-wine-co-vineyardsThe vineyards are the focus of all of our wines and each wine is made from grapes grown at one vineyard and not blended. We search out old vines and make wine from some of the oldest in the county. This allows us to make refreshingly balanced wines at lower alcohol levels than most California “blockbuster” or “cult” styled wines. Through low yields, improved farming techniques and gentle winemaking we aim to create a wine that pairs well with food and is delicious young but is also age-worthy. All of our vineyards are organic or sustainably farmed.

Our winemaking philosophy is rooted in representing each individual vineyard by emphasizing balance, finesse, and complexity. We avoid excessive alcohol, and modern winemaking additives (such as commercial yeasts, bacteria, enzymes) that can overshadow vineyard characteristics. We also do not filter our wines or use intrusive wine processing machines. The goal – to grow grapes that are so healthy none of the above is needed.

Ken Brown Wines

Ken Brown Wines

Ken Brown Wines is recognized as one of Santa Barbara County’s pioneering winemakers and innovators. Among the first vintners to realize the tremendous promise for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in this cool-climate appellation in the mid-1970’s. Ken was also the first winemaker to introduce the Syrah grape. Consequently, he introduced the Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc, to Santa Barbara County.

Along with an uncompromising drive for quality, Ken constantly reevaluates everything he does in his winemaking endeavors. With nearly 40 years’ experience in this region, Ken’s goal is to focus on exceptional Pinot Noir from leading vineyards in Santa Rita Hills and several other select locations in the county.

With the introduction of Ken Brown Wines in 2005, he can optimize the best sources of Pinot Noir with uncompromised winemaking. His wines feature Pinot Noir in addition to limited bottlings of Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay.

Crafting small batches of premium Pinot Noir

Ken Brown Wines focuses on crafting small batches of premium Pinot Noir sourced from Sta. Rita Hills’ finest vineyards. Situated in Buellton, at the gateway to the Sta. Rita Hills appellation. The winery produces limited quantities, typically around 1,500 cases annually, with most lots containing 250 cases or less. Working closely with long-standing growers, including Sanford & Benedict, Radian, Rita’s Crown, and La Encantada, Ken Brown hand-selects vineyard blocks to showcase the region’s terroir.

With a career dedicated to mastering Pinot Noir, Brown’s journey began at Zaca Mesa Winery, leading to a 20-year tenure at Byron Vineyard before establishing Ken Brown Wines. His passion for experimentation, exploring various clones, rootstocks, soils, and winemaking techniques, underscores his commitment to unlocking Santa Barbara County’s Pinot Noir potential.

Brown’s association with Sta. Rita Hills dates back to 1976. Then he encountered Richard Sanford and Michael Benedict, igniting his fascination with the region’s wines. Launching his label in 2003 reignited his enthusiasm, propelling him to pursue even greater quality. Guided by decades of experience, Brown remains dedicated to pushing the boundaries of Pinot Noir excellence in Santa Barbara County.

EVAN’S RANCH

Winery

Located in the renowned Santa Rita Hills appellation of western Santa Ynez Valley, Evan’s Ranch Winery in Santa Barbara County. Established during the 1990s by the Gainey family, who have farmed in Santa Ynez Valley for four generations.  Searching for an ideal site on which to cultivate the classic cool-climate varieties Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah.

evan's-ranch-wine-tasting-los-olivosNamed after owner Dan Gainey’s great-grandfather, Evan’s Ranch is just ten miles from the Pacific Ocean and benefits from its marine influence, which lengthens the growing season, limits crop yields, and produces grapes with ripe, concentrated flavors balanced by bright acidity and a refreshing minerality. This enables us to craft six very limited-production, world-class wines: Las Brisas and La Marina Chardonnays, Las Brisas and Lone Oak Pinot Noirs and Las Brisas and Lone Oak Syrahs.

Kaena is a boutique winery that sources from Tierra Alta Vineyard and Larner Vineyard in the Ballard Canyon AVA , primarily. Winemaker, Mikael Sigouin, who is part Hawaiian and raised on the Oahu shores, uses a shortened version of his given name for the brand – Kaena – which means “potential for greatness”.

That “greatness” is evident in the wines – in 2006 Wine Spectator named Mikael one of the top 10 new Rhone producers. Known affectionately by his peers and fans as The Grenache King – Kaena produces 2,000 cases of Rhone & other varietals with an emphasis on Grenache.

Kaena has been serving up the Aloha in the Santa Ynez Valley for the last three years in the beautiful quaint town of Los Olivos. The vibe is welcoming, chill, relaxed. We feel so proud of our staff we consider them our O’hana, which means “Family” in the Hawaiian language. Our O’hana is knowledgeable, compassionate and just down right fun to cruz with! Come in and enjoy the best Grenache around!

Vineyards & Winery

Dierberg and Star Lane

The first decade of JIm and Mary Dierberg’s  California Dierberg and Star Lane Vineyards wine adventure was spent searching for the ideal location to plant a vineyard. They started a new winery. In 1996, driving upon the former dude and cattle ranch – Star Lane Ranch, Mary Dierberg recalled: “We immediately knew that we wanted this amazing ranch”.

Dierberg & Starlane vineyards and winery

 

With wisdom from patience, a 250 year plan, the certainty of passion, and some of the best consultants in the business, the Dierbergs planted Star Lane Vineyard with Bordeaux varietals, based on their confidence in those grapes’ ability to soar in this unique microclimate.

Dierberg and Star Lane Vineyards

The family subsequently added two cool climate vineyards represented by the DIERBERG wines; creating a collection of superb estates within three distinct AVAs of Santa Barbara County’s winegrowing region.
