$6,000,000 - $24,500,000 - THE RANCHES AT FIGUEROA CANYON - 187 - 1,178 ACRES - Golden terrain, majestic oaks and beautiful vistas are everywhere. Historically used for cattle ranching, this land has been meticulously maintained and lovingly cared for. There is incredible potential for vineyards, equestrian facilities, and world class ranch estates. Five offerings are available, each with one or more certificates of compliance from Santa Barbara County. All are in the agricultural preserve.

$9,250,000 - WINERY / VINEYARD POTENTIAL IN DRUM CANYON - 503 ACRES - Located within the eastern border of the new Santa Rita Hills Appellation, this 503 acre ranch estate has been used as a horse and cattle operation and has extensive support structures for that purpose. However, the property has the makings of a prestigious winery in one of the state's best regions for Pinot Noir. 

$7,500,000 SANTA RITA VINEYARD POTENTIAL - 373 ACRES - This large pastoral ranch is located in the heart of the Santa Rita Hills Appellation, just behind the Melville & Babcock Wineries. The property has gentle slopes, valleys, and mesas all perfect for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The weather, soils and water in this location all combine to create the perfect environment for growing premium wine grapes. The area is fast becoming known worldwide for its vast potential.

$7,500,000 - PURISIMA AREA LAND - 514 ACRES - This land has frontage on Highway 246 and is adjacent to the La Purisima Golf Course just east of Lompoc. It is also near the Santa Rita Hills Appellation and would make an excellent vineyard for grapes such as Pinot Noir. With excellent water, flat farmland and approximately 200 acres plantable, there is great potential here.

$5,500,000 - GATEWAY TO THE SANTA RITA HILLS AVA - 98 ACRES - Located just within the eastern boundary of the Santa Rita Hills Appellation, this property is the gateway to one of the most famous Pinot regions in the country.  The land is almost completely flat and 100% plantable to grapes.  Abundant water, perfect climate and soils all combine to make this land a vintner's dream.  The proximity to Buellton and easy access also make it the perfect place for a winery at the entrance to "Sideways Country."

$4,600,000 - SANTA RITA HILLS RANCH ESTATE - 44 ACRES - This is a beautiful Ranch / Estate in the Santa Rita Hills Appellation. The newer 4,000 +/- square foot home was built to take advantage of the pastoral views of the nearby rolling hills. A gourmet kitchen and three fireplaces are just a few of the many stylish amenities this home offers. The land stretches south with an apple orchard and farmland that could easily be converted to vineyards. A large garage / workshop and two other homes round out the improvements on the property. Situated just minutes from Buellton, Solvang and Santa Ynez, this ranch offers elegant country living.

$3,750,000 - SANTA ROSA ROAD VIEW RANCH - 118 ACRES - This beautiful and pastoral ranch has fantastic views of the hills and vineyards of the Santa Rita Hills and the Santa Ynez River.  The topography is mostly gentle, rolling hills - some covered with thick oak stands and others open grass land that could be planted in grapes.  In fact, there are approximately 40 to 50 acres that could be used for vineyard, all within the new STA Rita Hills Appellation, which is becoming known worldwide for its Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes.

$2,000,000 - SANTA ROSA ROAD FARMLAND - 230 ACRES - This ranch has some flat farmland near the Santa Ynez River and some oak covered hills on the south side of Santa Rosa Road.  Good water along the river, and great views from the hills.

$995,000 - POTENTIAL VINEYARD LAND IN STA RITA HILLS AVA - 42 ACRES -  The land is gentle and well positioned on the south slope of the Santa Rita Hills.  This is an excellent area for growing premium wine grapes such as Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.  This land has a somewhat remote access, and is not buildable for residential purposes at this time.  That's the reason you get 42 acres of prime vineyard land in a new and extremely promising appellation for only $1,200,000.

$800,000 - CEBADA CANYON ACREAGE - 20 ACRES  This land could be used for a vineyard, farming, horses, or any combination thereof. The sandy soil is well suited for horses, and although the property is not in the Santa Rita Hills Appellation, it is just outside the boundary, and would produce excellent pinot grapes. The property has no improvements beyond perimeter fencing, and is a blank slate waiting for development.
