Tucked away into the far southwest corner of the Sta. Rita Hills AVA in Santa Barbara County, The Hilt Estate is defined by three distinct vineyards; Bentrock, Radian and Puerta del Mar. These windswept vineyards produce spectacular fruit and have catapulted The Hilt into an elite class of estates known for pinot noir and chardonnay.
For over 40 years now, the Sanford Winery has set the standard for quality in the region and is also home to the oldest Pinot Noir vines in the county. Today the estate is owned, farmed, and cared for by the Terlato family and is comprised of the Sanford & Benedict and La Rinconada Ranches and their vineyards.
Family-owned and operated, Babcock Winery is surrounded by 90 acres of estate vineyards currently planted to Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio and Pinot Noir.
