Producer Information

In 1962, at the age of thirty-two, Pierre Lafond founded the fi rst post-prohibition commercial winery in Santa Barbara County. Two years later, he located a winery facility on Anacapa Street, just two blocks from the Pacific Ocean.Santa Barbara Winery has become an extremely visible and successful wine concern, winning many medals for an array of wines. Lafond is now in the midst of a signifi cant expansion in order to meet the desires of the consuming public. Initially Lafond used grapes from outside the county, notably zinfandel from Bill York’s vineyards in Templeton. York Winery, later York Mountain Winery, had its own historic allure: it was the oldest winery in San Luis Obispo County, and it had vinified grapes for the famous Polish statesman and virtuoso pianist Ignace Paderewski.Santa Barbara Winery is currently building a new facility at its vineyard on Santa Rosa Road that will more than double the winery’s total production, from a current 20,000 to 44,000 cases. The additional 24,000 cases will be pinot noir and syrah, with the Santa Barbara facility being reserved for white wine production.
