Vincent Vineyards

Humble beginnings can craft character for the better if allowed. It is in this spirit the Vincent family patriarch’s love of wine and great respect for those exceptional wines, vineyards, and winemakers guided his hand in the design and execution of Vincent Vineyards & Winery. Like so many things, actions speak louder and that promise is held close by the entire team every day we operate.

Much as the Vincent family holds tightly to the principles of hard work, excellence, and care for those lucky enough to grace their lives – so does the operation and team of Vincent Vineyards. Just as the passion for wine guided the quality, care, and design of the Vince Vineyards & Winery, so it does for our team every day.

To create the type, style, and quality of wines desired – the finest farming, cultivation, stock, and soil are employed. Without exceptional farming, there is little any winemaker can accomplish. Thankfully, Vincent Vineyards equally has had astounding winemakers committed to our vision.

We invite you to watch this website & our documentation of the journey, the fun, the frustration, and ultimately the great joy we have been fortunate enough to call our own.

Having visited and enjoyed the Santa Ynez Valley since the early 70’s, when a close friend mentioned an interesting property had become available and had the foundation needed to develop an exceptional vineyard and possibly winery – Tony Vincent didn’t hesitate. Although a sizable project, the opportunity to create something personal and a little different in the Valley proved an inescapable possibility. So, in 2005 Vincent Vineyards was born.

Very careful planning and expertise from soil to farming was paramount, efficient and sparing use of resources using the latest technologies followed, and ultimately the detailed work to create the vintages and facilities we enjoy the benefit of today. As with all personal projects, challenges, setbacks, and successes litter the landscape to the end goals – yet, it is the experience, exceptional people discovered, and pursuit of quality that make it all worthwhile.

Born of very humble beginnings, our founding family patriarch invested a lifetime of persistence & hard work in pursuit of the very best he could conceive of at each step along the journey. A touch of luck, a bit of good fortune, and a handful of decades later he has been graced with a variety of exceptional life experiences, adventures, and accomplishments all of which he has shared along the way with those he loves and calls friends – Vincent Vineyards & Winery is no exception.

Club V and Winery itself have all been designed with sharing the experience and pleasure of wine, wine-making, and just good company at its heart. From the Vineyards 1950’s Packard to the 1949 Vincent Black Shadow motorcycle (a fun naming coincidence) our founders appreciation for unique & well executed vehicles extends similarly to our efforts everyday. Although a continual work in progress from our first days of newness, to the more mature years to follow, our home continues to grow reflecting the people, experiences, and memories that make the best parts of the culture of wine so enjoyable.
