Scott is AMAZING! The 3 stops we met the owners, heard their stories and enjoyed the most amazing diverse wines. The personal touches like lunch with flowers, bottled waters, sights to share with stories as we drove were top notch.

Book this. We met incredible winemakers and their wine passion certainly showed. We spent a day at 3 different wineries and each winery was so incredible. Scott was our host and he was attentive clearly had personal relationships with the winemakers. We loved every winery. Look…we’ve been to Napa, Sonoma, Paso….this trip was incredible beyond any experience we’ve ever had. Don’t even hesitate to book this. Best day ever!

I cannot say enough great things about the whole day! Book this now! We were a family of 6 from ages 26 to 82 and everyone had a great experience. Our tour guide for the day Scott thought of everything. He planned the whole day with some small requests from us. He picked us up in a beautiful Mercedes van, so we traveled in comfort to three boutique wineries. The owners of each winery talked us through their vision and process and taught us all so muchabout the wines! Scott provided a top notch experience with a beautiful picnic lunch served on real dishes, a gorgeous cheese board snack and a wealth of knowledge of the area. It was an A+ day.

WOW - Such an amazing day with our guide Scott! He’s incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating. First class transportation in a new decked out Mercedes van! We had sit down wine tastings at 3 upscale boutique wineries. These were all private tastings with the owner at their private estates. Minimum of 7 tastings at each. Delicious lunch at our first tasting and cheese, crackers & chocolates at the 2nd & 3rd tasting. Fabulous 8 hour experience! Sustainable Wine Tours is the best of the best & Scott is off the charts!!

Scott was amazing as a guide. Top notch!! The Mercedes was luxury seating. There were 6 of us women from Newport and we had the most special day meeting directly with the winemakers. Learned so much more than typical wine tours. Lunch and cheese plates constant Attentiveness by Scott. First class. To have access to these boutique wineries is very unique. Highly recommend. Will be back with the guys for sure!!!

Could not recommend this tour more. It was not like any wine tour I’ve taken before, and I’ve done plenty. Scott’s relationships with the winemakers and vineyards makes for such a special and exclusive experience. Amazing private access to wines and knowledge you are not going to get at the average tasting room. 10 out of 10, will absolutely do this again.

Highly recommend it. Paul called days before our tour to ask about our preferences and nailed it with his selections of vineyards, varietals and winemakers. All were private tastings and two of which were with the owners at their homes. Truly a custom experience. Do it.

My family went on this tour together and had so much fun! We got to meet three different small wine makers, meeting at different locations in the Santa Barbara wine growing region. The tour was personal, informative, and all of the wine we tried was unique and delicious. I think this has to be a near-perfect tour. The details of the trip were impeccable — from the comfort of the vehicle, the selection of the wineries, the lunch and snacks, the beautiful drive to the wineries, and the overall ambiance and pleasant people that we met. I will definitely do this again.

The guide for the day, Corrina, is charming, funny, extremely literate in wine and food. The wineries chosen were perfect. Each of the three offered a different aspect of wine growth and small-scale production. The scenery and scents were delicious. As a trained scent maker I was able to see the parallels between wine making and perfumery. Our hosts were able to pick up on the parallels and speak to them on the wine side. And, of course, the hosts, wines, and properties were very special.

10 out of 10 recommendation! Our day of tasting was perfectly curated with an impressive attention to detail. I can’t say enough positive things about our experience.
