    Stopped by in December and failed to finish my review. This spot was Area 51. It recently changed names to Orgullo. Located in SB's Funk Zone. The wine is good. Small spot , cozy and chill. Good place to unwind. Only one person was working and he was attentive. I would come back.

    The vibe here is something else. You don't find many places like this. Great staff, affordable wine tasting. You can come here and get a tasting for $25, cheapest on the block and listen to some great music. As soon as you walk in you're serenaded by Juan Gabriel and Vicente Fernandez. The art work will take you back to your childhood. Selena on the wall, along with the many Mexican icons. This is a Latino own buisness. Come in, get your drink on and explore what Santa Barbara has to offer. This will definitely be one of my starts next time I am in the area.

    We were walking in the funk town area and saw a buy one get one flight of wine. The place was small and had outside seating but there was a private party. We sat inside with some uncomfortable chairs and the wine tasting pour was half of a 1/4. The guy who served was nice however, it was only 3 of us drinking and he added 20% gratuity to the bill. I have never seen a gratuity that high especially when you only come and pour a literal sip. Next time, I will probably try other wineries as this one had many wines that had a dry note at the end and some of thr flavors were muted.

    What a stellar experience I had at Orgullo! I love that this winery was Latino owned- please be sure to support! What drew us in was the BOGO flights for $25 and included 5 tastings! The owners were so friendly and accommodating, and loved hearing their story. The vibes itself were 10/10, got a cute outdoor patio that we stayed on for over two hours because we were having such a great time. The wines are delicious. My favorite was the coyote rojo. They also offer a wine club if that interests you. If I ever come back to SB, I'm definitely coming here! My only feedback is I hope they can maybe include a few food options in the future but overall, 5 stars all around!

    Hidden Gem Alert! Before heading to Santa Barbara, I googled "Latino wineries" and came across Orgullo Wine--and WOW, I'm so glad I did. We stopped by on a Friday afternoon before heading home and were greeted by the amazing Emily, full of energy and warmth. As two newbies to natural wine, we couldn't have asked for a better introduction. Emily walked us through Orgullo's story, their wine-making process, and the powerful mission behind the brand. The space itself is a cultural masterpiece, featuring iconic figures like Vicente Fernández, Juan Gabriel, Chespirito, Pancho Villa, Emiliano Zapata, and Selena. As a proud Mexican-American, I felt instantly connected. I've never been much of a wine person, but let me tell you--the wine was incredible. So much so that... we became wine club members after just one visit! We came back the following weekend with friends and fell even more in love--this time with the Luna Roja (we took more bottles home, of course). Emily was there again to make our visit special, and we also met Marissa, who was equally amazing and even let us finish the last bit of White Light (75% Chardonnay, 25% Chenin Blanc)--a special treat from the previous winery that once occupied the space. Dear Orgullo owners: please bring something like this back! This place made me feel so proud to be Mexican--to come from a family who sacrificed so much for a better life. The music, the vibe, the hospitality, the culture--it all made me want to dance (and sip, of course). I'll keep coming back and bringing more friends with me. Orgullo has my heart--and full support.

    Shoutout to Jess B for this wonderful find in the funk zone. A great winery and spot to chill indoors while navigating all of the great wines and eats in the funk zone. I'm glad Jess showed us this spot as it's tucked away and it wouldn't have been a spot I would have likely found on my own at first. When we walked inside it was a bit quiet, dark (which I like) but not a whole lot initially off the bat to help us gauge what this spot would be like. Thankfully our group is a loud and fun rowdy good time so we livened up the place a little. Honestly that was all that was needed as a couple more people trickled in and good times were to be had. I liked the whole Area 51 theme, it's unique and far out. Lol. But we were informed that the winery name and decor will be changing so that's something new and interesting to be on the lookout for overtime. It will be the same wine maker and stuff, I look forward to their new approach. The wines here are great. I am not a wine expert but I know enough to say if something tastes great or doesn't lol and I was really impressed with their whites and rose. I honestly wished I had done a tasting here as trying little sips of my friend's wine I was impressed! Great value if you do a tasting and the pours were generous and every sip was very good. I shared a bottle of the White Light with a friend and it was lovely. A smooth white to drink and we went through a bottle quickly. I felt the bottles of wine were well priced as was the tasting. Definitely a good spot to stop to not break the bank but get some great tastes! Shoutout to Tommy who was working when we came in. He was lovely, super personable and eager to guide us through the wines. He had a great sense of humor and was very knowledgeable and passionate about the wines, while still making it feel approachable for someone like me who knows nothing about wine. I liked that he really focused on our experience vs making it about how well versed we are or aren't on wines. He definitely made this trip A+ and we all agreed we'd come back soon because of the service and awesome wines. If you haven't been here yet definitely check them out and just be aware some changes will be coming soon to the name and vibe, but the great wines will still be here.

    We sampled a glass of red wine at Orgullo and sat outside on a sunny and cool day. The server was friendly and attentive. I wanted to like their wine, but found the red to be bland and lacked flavor. It's a nice place with a nice concept. The four stars is for the overall experience, however for wine it would be like a two.

    Chardonnay and Pinot Noir

    Walked in around 12/12:30 PM on a Saturday and it wasn't busy at all! We did one tasting and then each got a glass each after. The tasting has a flight of 5. Our favorites were the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir! You can really taste the coconut hints in the Chardonnay which was so unique. The glasses of wine also had some generous pours! Indoor and outdoor seating, not intimidating at all and the selection was lovely. The interior was cozy and perfect for smaller groups.

    Sunday evening with the girls ended with a bang at this lovely winery. Our server was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Cute and quaint spot located in the funk zone of Santa Barbara.

    Area 5.1 Winery is a perfect spot to have a glass of wine, do some tasting and spend time with friends. It's location is in the center of The Funk Zone and can accommodate outdoor patio seating or indoor seating in their air conditioned tasting room. The wine selection includes reds, white and sparkling wine. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and can make great recommendations for what you'd like to drink. They also have a Twism deal, formerly Axxess Card. I'm definitely a fan will be back the next I'm in the area for wine tasting!

    I think the wine here was great. It is way better than the wine from Area 51. The service was spectacular. I loved all the touches inside the tasting room for Dia de Los Muertos. I would definitely come back here. I came with my friend who is a wine club member. A perk to being a wine e club member is that you get 4 wine tastings each time you go. We ended up being a group of 4 so this perk worked out great.

    First stop on our wine tour.

    We started here for a 21st birthday celebration tour, in the end we ended up at 3 total tasting rooms. Our wine steward, or sommelier, depending on how bougie you want to be, was Jesse. She did a nice job and was very personable. You have two options on where you will enjoy your drinking experience, the inside tasting room, or the outside vineyard. We enjoyed the fresh air of outside, which is not really a vineyard, but a tastefully decorated area. Jesse, was super helpful in pulling together some chairs to accommodate our group and really was a great host. My group did the $25 wine flight, which included a variety of whites and reds. Jesse did a nice job of explaining each glass and mentally preparing us. Truth be told, I liked the wine selections, but they were not as complex and tasty as the other locations we hit. Some in our group were thrown by the grape seed sediment. The alien theme was fun, and not too over the top. We enjoyed our afternoon, thanks Jesse.

    One of our (many) winery stops in downtown Santa Barbara. This spot has clean and spacious indoor seating area, and an outdoor patio with plenty of seating - which is where we sat. We each ordered two pours of a white and a red, both were great. The staff member who helped us was great. He even told us some Area 51, alien-related, stories, which was fun to hear after two glasses of wine ;). Definitely worth a stop if you're winery hopping. :)

    This really is the perfect place for both wine AND food…read more So far we've been in a couple times sitting in the bar area and also out on their comfy patio space. Our servers Alex and Kayla were exceptional at both suggesting some delicious lunch items, and also giving a rundown on their different wine tastings. They gave us some helpful information on the assorted varietals and vintages as well. We went in specifically for their M5 and Riviera Rose, but discovered their extensive selection of other varietals and vintages. Came away with some new favorites: Sauvignon Blanc, Trois Blondes (a delicious white blend), Viognier, Mourvedre, and Estate Syrah. Perfect that they open at noon for lunch. We paired our wines with their Santa Barbara Smokehouse Salmon, Smoked Duck and Arugula Salad, Chicken Pesto Sandwich, and Sausage Mushroom & Carmelized Onion Pizza. Still so much on their menu to enjoy.

    I'm giving this place 3 stars because of the efforts of one server to keep things afloat outside…read more When we arrived, another large party had just left outside and she immediately cleaned one of their tables so we could sit. It was chilly so she tried to light the heat lamp at my request but both that one and the replacement did not work. The replacement actually had the propane disconnected so I assume someone knew that tank needed to be changed out but didn't do it. The other tables from the large party were full of wine glasses and a half eaten pizza. Those sat there for over an hour, and we watched several groups of people come but leave without being seated because no server was available yo seat them and the only open table hadn't been cleared. When it was finally cleared, one guest at a near by table commented that the pizza shouldn't go to waste. The girl who cleared the table initially carried it inside but came right back out with it and served it to that guest whose kid ate it. I'm all for not wasting food and if the guest had gotten up and grabbed the pizza himself, that would be one thing... but to serve old food that had been sitting out for a long time to a guest is a no no for a business. We otherwise enjoyed most of the wines in our tasting flight. Would've given 5 stars if service had been more timely, tables cleared and old food not served up.

    So much to love about these 10 blocks of Shopping, Wine, Beer, Coffee, Restaurants, Art, Museums…read moreand Culture, Hotels, and more Shopping. And all nestled nicely between Highway 101 and Cabrillo Blvd, and between Garden Street and State Street. Can't even start with what my favorite spots are, I find a new one each time I visit. Usually plenty of street parking on the weekdays, and on the weekends definitely need to use one of the assorted public parkling lots in the area. You'll also find Live DJ's, Karaoke, Trivia Nights, Live Music, Bingo, Happy/Hoppy Hours . . . and sometimes dancing in the streets.

    This is a truly funky place to explore. There's an eclectic mix of restaurants, unique shops,…read morewineries, breweries, coffee, antiques, and more. Parking is challenging on the weekends. We've been there when it's busy and it can be festive-- pop ups in old vintage rv's or outside beer halls can appear; bands playing in several spots, etc. Experiences can be hit or miss. We visited a winery called Area 51 which sounded fun, but the wines were just okay. But Pali Wine had very good wines, a relaxing patio, and cool live music. The stores vary from very pricey threads to affordable knick knacks; succulents to vintage records to original artwork. Many spaces occupy previously owned old businesses that give it a nostalgic feeling. A few top name wineries have spaces here (i.e. Fess Parker). Definitely worth checking out in looking for a unique time in Santa Barbara.
