Lafond
Lafond produces wines from Santa Barbara County's Central Coast terroir, where cool maritime influence shapes the character of cool-climate varieties. The winery's Vineyard Chardonnay expresses the region's capacity for textured, mineral-driven whites, while the Vineyard Martin Ray Clone Pinot Noir draws on the site's Pinot potential—a grape that thrives in Santa Barbara's measured warmth and diurnal swing. A Late Harvest Riesling rounds the portfolio, capturing the aromatic and sweet-wine traditions of the region. Wine Enthusiast has rated these releases, recognizing their technical merit across the lineup.
