Welcome to Sanford Winery & Vineyards
– A Pioneer in Every Pour
Discover where Santa Barbara wine history began! Sanford Winery is a true trailblazer—we planted the first Pinot Noir vines in the Sta. Rita Hills, setting the stage for world-class wines from this extraordinary region.
Steeped in tradition and driven by innovation, Sanford continues to craft wines that reflect the soul of the land. Our legendary Sanford & Benedict Vineyard is the heart of it all, producing elegant, Burgundy-style Pinot Noir and Chardonnay with depth, balance, and beauty.
Rooted in Family, Fueled by Passion
The Terlato family has poured generations of care into every vine and vintage. Their commitment to excellence and sustainability shines through in every bottle.
Sip, Savor, and Soak in the Views
Our tasting room is open daily by appointment from 10 AM to 4 PM. Enjoy sweeping vineyard views as you explore our portfolio of award-winning wines. Each tasting is an experience—unforgettable, relaxed, and full of flavor.
Meet Trey, Our Winemaker
Trey brings a wealth of experience from top California wineries, including Bien Nacido and Littorai. His hands-off, vineyard-first approach lets the fruit shine. The result? Wines that speak clearly of the Sta. Rita Hills—vibrant, expressive, and full of character.
