Babcock Winery & Vineyards
Babcock Winery & Vineyards, established in 1978 by Mona and Walter Babcock, is a family-owned winery located in the heart of California's Sta. Rita Hills AVA. The winery is renowned for its small production bottlings of unique, terroir-driven wines, particularly Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Under the guidance of winemaker Bryan Babcock since 1983, the winery has embraced innovative farming techniques, including the concept of AGRISTHETICS, which treats the vineyard as a piece of art by integrating reforestation and butterfly sanctuaries into the landscape. Visitors to Babcock Winery can enjoy a retro-rock-and-roll themed tasting room filled with vintage photos, mid-century furnishings, and a curated playlist of 70s and 80s tunes, creating a soulful atmosphere to sip and shop an array of vintage, vinyl, jewelry, and other unique finds.
