Established in 1973, Zaca Mesa is a family-owned and operated winery with a long-standing history in Santa Barbara County. As the first vineyard to plant Syrah in the area in 1978, Zaca Mesa has since helped pioneer the Santa Barbara Rhône movement through an unwavering dedication to Syrah and Rhône varietals. Combining traditional old-world winemaking practices with innovative farming and vineyar

d techniques, Zaca Mesa continues its legacy as a producer of high-quality California Rhône-style wines that are true reflections of the vineyard and appellation. Continuing Zaca Mesa’s legacy today is Winemaker Kristin Bryden, who was promoted to Winemaker in 2016, along with Craig Ebersole as Assistant Winemaker. Driven by passion and integrity, Bryden takes a hands-on, artisanal approach to crafting quality wines that reflect Zaca Mesa’s unique site. We invite you to enjoy a tasting or glass of wine in our courtyard or on the terrace to experience the true beauty of our estate overlooking our vineyards and the San Rafael Mountains.

The ones who meet you, greet you and pour wine for you. The ones who hand pack those wines, on the other side of that email checking on your wine club shipment, who posted this social media post, and look forward to see you walk in our tasting room. We are the Zaca Mesa crew. Your crew.

Are you seeing this channel for the first time? Well, we believe strangers are friends we haven't met yet, so give us a follow!

Imagine your next celebration happening here.

Picture this: a long table under the oaks, the vineyard stretching out behind you, a glass of Zaca Mesa in hand, and the people you love all in one place. This is what your private event could look like. That golden Santa Ynez light that makes everything feel a little more special. Birthdays. Celebrations. Team gatherings. Just because.

Let's make it yours.

Every bottle you'll ever open started with something this small.

Last time we shared bud break, when the vines first wake up for the season. Now we're onto the next step: flowering. Our vines are covered in tiny flowers right now, and even though they're easy to walk right past, they're kind of a big deal. Each little flower that pollinates turns into a single grape. So this is really where every bottle gets its start.

It's a quiet moment out in the vineyard, but an important one.

Here's our question: what do you call the next stage after flowering? Drop your guess below.

Vineyard Sightings 🐝 A small but essential part of the ecosystem.

Tucked inside the trees, this hive is quietly at work. While bees don’t directly pollinate grapevines, they play an important role in everything around them, supporting cover crops, encouraging biodiversity, and helping maintain a healthy, balanced vineyard.

It’s all connected, more than you might think.

Come wander the vineyard with us. You might just spot a few of our smallest and hardest working neighbors.

Just passing through, minding their business, and reminding us this is very much their home too.

We’ll be admiring this one from afar.
