Boutique winery dedicated to crafting a small portfolio of still and sparkling wines from a single, sustainably farmed vineyard on the bank of the Sisquoc River, known as the Santa Maria Bench.
“Always a wonderful time! Highly suggest the Pinot Sparkling wine!”
“Beautiful tasting yard, nice wines. A little in the light side (of course that’s normal for the area).”
“I’ve been a wine club member at Riverbench Winery for 13 years, and the wine has stayed consistently delightful all these years—especially the sparkling, which is always a favorite. Visiting over the years has had its ups and downs when it comes to staff, but our most recent visit was truly delightful. The gardens are beautiful as always, and the woman who helped us this time was so fun, warm, and engaging. I really wish I had caught her name because she made the experience extra enjoyable. It’s wonderful to have a visit that reminds you why you’ve stayed a member for so long. Looking forward to many more glasses in that gorgeous setting”
“The most idyllic wine tasting spot! We drove past so many wineries and this one was out of this world - the service and just everything. Super happy about this extraordinary experience! The wines were super tasty as well - highly recommend going there!”
“Love their Pinot Noir. Great places to stop and have a glass of wine. Lovely outdoor seating. Everyone is so nice.”
