A Spring Wine Tasting Experience in the Vineyard

Saturdays 2-4 PM

Reservations required


Join us for Wine Tasting and Experience so much more

 

Set in the foothills of the Sierra Madre, walk into our dry-farmed, organic vineyard and feel the magic.
Under the big oak, taste wines that come directly from these vines as you engage in stories of legends, wine and condors.


Every Saturday at 2:00 (with a few exceptions) we offer a Spring Vineyard Experience with a tour of the vineyard followed by a wine tasting paired with home-made appetizers. Join farmer-owners Steve Gliessman and Robbie Jaffe as they share with you their climate-appropriate dry-farmed vineyard. This is a 2-hour visit from 2:00 – 4:00.

Our five-acre, family-owned vineyard uses traditional dry-farm practices. This produces full-bodied, bold, complex wines while protecting the environment and conserving water. Dry farming allows farmers to grow grapes and olives with little or no irrigation. At Condor’s Hope we put the principles of agroecology to practice bringing together our love of farming, the environment, and community.

Condor’s Hope Ranch is located in the foothills of the Sierra Madre Mountains, near Hwy 166 in the Cuyama Valley in Northern Santa Barbara County. Our five-acre vineyard is in a natural setting adjacent to the Los Padres National Forest. We are off the grid and completely solar-powered.
We’re conveniently located in the middle of nowhere for that true get-away feeling!
