What people are saying.

  • The property itself (The Vineyard Estate & Cottages) is a big highlight. However the staff is what made our visit such a delightful experience, from the food, the winery visit to the horse rides. They also included a campfire with s’mores for the children, which was an added bonus. We had such a memorable time! I think you are doing things at a very high, yet relaxing, level.

  • “Thanks to Chuy and the entire SBWE team for an incredible weekend. We had such a great time and it's still hard to come back to reality after our new year's weekend in Santa Ynez. From the incredible property and idyllic views, plush bedding, heated pool, fabulous food, and unrivaled hospitality from the staff, it's going to be a hard one to beat. Chuy was so helpful in organizing our stay, meals and horseback riding and communicative throughout our entire stay. We highly recommend!”

  • "Thankful for Chuy, Jenna and Santa Barbara Wine Events for planning our perfect weekend - from the hotel, our amazing driver, and scheduled tastings/ vineyards we had the best weekend and truly couldn't have done it without them. I would highly recommend connecting and using their service next time you are going to the Santa Ynez Valley. We are already planning our next trip!"

  • "Jazz in the vines exceeded our expectations! Amazing music, some of my favorite wine in the valley and great people in a beautiful setting. Chuy and Jenna were great hosts and you can tell they have a true passion for what they have created at the Kessler-Haak vineyard. Perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon! We will be back for the August event for sure!"
