The Wineries

Check back often - more wineries on their way!

Alexander & Wayne

While most small wineries specialize in just a few varieties, producing them in significant quantities, the Alexander and Wayne philosophy is one of producing small lots of many different varieties and blends. At any given time we will have as many as 15 different wines to sample and purchase in our tasting room.

Valley View Vineyard,

We present Cabernet Franc both as a single-varietal wine and in a Bordeaux-style blend, Mille Delices.

Estate Vineyard,
Santa Ynez Valley

Bouchet is another name the French use for Cabernet Franc in the Bordeaux region and we feel it is an appropriate name for our estate grown, Bordeaux-style blend.


Blackjack Ranch

It is my goal to produce wines at Blackjack Ranch that will be both pleasurable and memorable. The Ranch is planted with Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Chardonnay. Rootstocks were selected primarily for low yields. The topography ranges from level to treacherously steep rolling hillsides with blocks such as Billy Goat Hill, Suicide Hill, and Hamburger's Hill.

Lucas & Lewellen

The vineyards of Lucas & Lewellen are located in the three principal wine grape growing regions of Santa Barbara County: the Santa Maria Valley, the Los Alamos Valley, and the Santa Ynez Valley. These valleys all run west from the coastal mountains to the Pacific Ocean, allowing warm days and cool nights to produce a long, gentle growing season. From the finest estate grown grapes come the finest wines.
