Bryan Babcock is considered as one of the brightest stars in wine making as he got selected for ‘Ten Best Wine makers of the year.’ He was also named as ‘The most courageous Winemaker of the Year’ for his distinct style. Bryan is in this wine making business since 1984,as his family owned business.
Bryan chased his dreams of enhancing his family owned business. His wines speak themselves, yet his commitment to excellence is so high that it keeps on pushing him constantly. His willingness to experiment and explore with so many grape varieties is worth mentioning.
It all started a way back in 1978,Walt and Mona Babcock changed their profession from dental practice and restaurateurs. Their search for led them to buy 110 acres of land on the western edge of Santa Ynez in Santa Barbara Country. Babcocks planted vine yard in 25 acres as they knew it was a fledgling of wine. Every calculation fell right on their side, and they took a plunge in wine making. 1984 was a time of ‘now or never‘ for Babcocks. They pursued their dream.
Still owned by family this business has been expanded unimaginably. From 25 acres of wine yard they have reached up to 80 acres!What has Bryan excited these days is the promotion of a newly BATF approved appellation, Santa Rita Hills. Named for the hills that lie in the western end of the Santa Ynez Valley between two other ranges-- the Purisimas to the north and the Santa Rosas to the south-- this region is situated at its closest point within 10 miles of the Pacific Ocean.
Brayan, has the business acumen of thinking ‘out of the box.’ So a sure shot of success for Bryan.
