About
Santa Ynez
Founded in 1882, the western township of Santa Ynez is situated just one mile from the historic San Marcos Pass stagecoach route over the Santa Ynez Mountains between Santa Barbara and Los Olivos. Just as in 1882, the town provides services to the surrounding ranches and farms, as well as to visitors of the region. The town’s turn-of-the-20th-century western false-front architecture boasts a surprising variety of shops, services, restaurants, and accommodations, benefiting both residents and visitors alike.

Artiste Wine Tasting and Gallery
At Artiste, ultra-premium, limited edition cuvées pay homage to old-world winemakers and form a synthesis between the fine art on the label and fine wine in the bottle.
Like an impressionist painter mixing colors on a palette, Artiste winemaker, Bion Rice, artfully canvases a selection of vintages and varietals from exceptional winegrowers and winemakers throughout California; and then creates art inspired wines from California.
Bion’s unwavering insistence on quality ensures that lots remain small, with each wine produced under 500 cases. With each blend, Artiste wines capture a sense of old-world style with new-world personality, handcrafting liquid works of art for your palate.
