:: design we love :: STOLPMAN WINE

Stolpman Vineyards in outside of Santa Barbara in the Santa Ynez Hills. With a tasting room in Los Olivos, they offer two very different tasting opportunities - one is a more traditional tour through their estate-grown classics (hint: delicious pinot noirs!), the other is a taste through some crushable, chillable, all-over-the-map varietals meant to be fun and had in the moment. Crunchy Roastie (pictured above!) was a favorite, as well as their ‘love you bunches’ series that you can find in local stores. Anything you have will be a delight and the father, Tom Stolpman passed down the tradition of wine-making to his son Pete who now runs the operation so it stays in the family. We can’t wait to return and in the meantime will enjoy what we brought back to Seattle.
