Gainey Vineyard

Gainey Vineyard is located in the Santa Ynez Valley, the heart of Santa Barbara's Wine Country. Surrounded by 85 acres of premium vineyards, rolling hills and gracious oaks, it makes an intimate and unique location for all of your special events. Conveniently located on Highway 246, we are easily accessed from both the north and south. The grounds are perfectly suited for a variety of indoor and outdoor events. We feature five separate areas to accommodate all of your needs.

Areas:

The Tasting Room

Located in the main section of the winery, this Spanish-style room has saltillo-tile floors, elkhorn chandeliers, french antique furniture and a beautiful, spacious fireplace. Multiple windowed doors show off the beautiful landscape of vineyards and mountains. We can provide an intimate atmosphere seating a maximum of 50 guests.

The Patio

The lawn patio area is surrounded by vineyards, oak trees and mountain views. This is also where we have our Barbecue facilities. Directly adjacent to the tasting room, this area can accommodate up to 200 seated guests.

Vineyard View Picnic Area

This area is located adjacent to the vineyard on the east side of the patio. Used for picnicking on a daily basis, it is reserved for our wedding ceremony site and reception area. With wedding-style seating, it can accommodate approximately 200 guests and is ample room for an "after ceremony" reception. Two spectacular California Oaks shade this area, with beautiful mountain and vineyard views.

The Courtyard

Our Courtyard is the large, outdoor circular area located at the main entrance of the winery. There is a large, grassy, sycamore-shaded circle ideal for food and beverage service, surrounded by a large, circular, smooth cement surface that can accommodate up to 500 guests. Vineyards with sweeping mountain views border this courtyard.
