Winery
Alma Rosa Winery is dedicated to making Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wines that express the unique terroir of our appellation, the Sta. Rita Hills. Our wines are layered, vibrant and balanced, reflecting the cool climate impact of the Pacific Ocean breezes that funnel through the unique East-West transverse mountain range of the region.

Situated on the north-facing slopes of the Santa Rosa Hills in Santa Barbara County, the Alma Rosa estate vineyard, El Jabali, was planted in 1983 and became the first certified organic vineyard in Santa Barbara County. Today, the Alma Rosa estate vineyards are 5 non-contiguous plantings of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay — along with small amounts of cool climate Syrah and Grenache — that are farmed using sustainable practices. Vines total 38 acres across our 628-acre estate that stretches from the valley floor to the top of the range.

    Amazing wine very highly rated by Robert Parker/Wine Advocate. The Chardonnays and the Pinots are top notch and we can’t say enough good things about the Vin Gris! We were so blown away by our first ever tasting at the winery that we joined the club. Ethan was a terrific host and the cheese tray perfectly paired with the wines. Overall, a stellar experience!

    An incredible experience in such a beautiful atmosphere, with good wine, and fantastic staff. Pam, who led our wine tasting was so kind and friendly and shared her wonderful knowledge of the wines and the property. I remember Pam almost as fondly as the wines and absolutely stunning environment of the tasting. 10/10 and make sure Pam is working there that day

    Beautiful setting and the staff member was very warm and hospitable. However, this was advertised as being an inside look at the grape growing, winemaking and other factors that lead to the wine tasting the way it does. The staff person had very little knowledge about any of these things, and was not able to tell us about basic things like filtering and fining, use of whole clusters, or vineyard management practices. Certainly not worth the $55 per person charge.

    A lovely setting for a wine tasting: under giant oak trees on a beautiful rural vineyard property. My only quibble is that the tastes were a bit skimpy compared to a standard tasting pour, and our tasting attendant was not very wine savvy.

    We arrived right on time for our supposed 2 hour private experience and Pam greeted us right away and told us that the people before us had just arrived-30 minutes late, so she was going to serve them also, but that she would not shortchange us. I wish! First of all, let me say that Pam was very friendly, but she didn’t seem to know anything about the wines beyond what was written on the tasting sheet. Also, she never introduced herself, I had to ask her for her name. She gave the other group a cheese plate, & I kept waiting for ours. Finally, after 4 pours, I asked her, and she said oh yeah you were supposed to get one, but not them. I think she forgot who paid for the private tasting. Add to that the fact that she spent more & more time with the other group, sitting down and chatting with them, while we got our pours and very little else. This is not what I paid $110 for!! What a ripoff!! We were done in an hour! We had a lovely tasting last year with Adrienne, and loved the wines, and we were so looking forward to a great experience. What a disappointment!!

    This was a WONDERFUL experience! We made this reservation for my sister's birthday, and the four of us had an amazing time - lovely atmosphere outside under the trees, excellent service, and delightful conversation with our host. She made this such a memorable experience. Highly recommend this private experience with Alma Rosa! And the wine was delicious (my parents signed up for the wine club!).

    We booked The Ranch wine tasting experience. It was a private tasting under a shady tree next to the estates original farmhouse. The hostess was wonderful, wine was wonderful and the experience very relaxing. They provided a cheese tasting plate that nicely complemented the wines.
