LaFond Winery & Vineyards

A pair of LaFond Winery & Vineyards Labelled Wine Glass

Lafond Winery & Vineyards holds the distinction of being the first post-Prohibition commercial winery in Santa Barbara County. Situated in the heart of the Sta. Rita Hills AVA, the winery benefits from the region's unique east-west mountain ranges, which channel cool Pacific breezes and create an ideal microclimate for viticulture. Spanning approximately 95 acres, the estate is predominantly planted with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, varieties that thrive in the cool-climate conditions of the area. Under the guidance of winemaker Bruce McGuire, who has been with the winery since its inaugural crush in 2000, Lafond has garnered acclaim for producing wines that authentically express the terroir of the Sta. Rita Hills. The winery's commitment to sustainability is evident in its vineyard practices, ensuring that the land remains fertile and productive for future generations. Visitors to Lafond Winery are welcomed to a picturesque tasting room, open Thursday through Sunday from 11 AM to 4 PM, where they can sample a diverse portfolio of wines while overlooking the scenic vineyards. The winery also offers private events by appointment, providing an intimate setting for gatherings amidst the vines. As part of a family of Santa Barbara-based establishments, including Santa Barbara Winery and Pierre Lafond Market & Deli, Lafond Winery & Vineyards embodies a legacy of quality and innovation in California winemaking.
