LOMPOC WINE
GHETTO

In Lompoc, California you'll find close to a dozen wineries to explore, from boutique tasting rooms in the Lompoc Wine Ghetto to beautiful estate vineyards in the Sta. Rita Hills.

Many of the locally-made, small-batch wines are produced in the Lompoc Wine Ghetto, a cluster small urban wineries and tasting rooms in an industrial park complex within city limits. But don't let the name or exterior fool you; inside these tasting rooms you’ll find award-winning wines and artisan winemakers, enthusiastically sharing their craft. In fact, the Lompoc Wine Ghetto is the largest concentration of world-class, small-production tasting rooms in Santa Barbara County.

LOMPOC WINE GHETTO

The Lompoc Wine Ghetto is a unique collection of wineries, tasting rooms, and production facilities located off Pacific Coast Highway 1 and 12th Street. The Wine Ghetto has about several boutique tasting rooms to choose from - most are open Fridays - Sundays, but some are open Thursdays and Mondays, too!

Nearby in Midtown Lompoc - just a few blocks from the Wine Ghetto - there are several more great wineries to visit. And just a few miles away in the Sta. Rita Hills, you’ll find flourishing vineyards and larger wineries, open seven days a week for tasting and touring.
