Kessler-haak Wines - Lompoc

Between the view the air the wine life almost feels perfect. Now add amazing jazz!

A true hidden gem. I love hidden gems. This place is family owned and operated. I got to meet the winemaker Dan and taste wine with him. What a unique experience. We will definitely be back. The wines were delicious and priced fairly for the quality. Make this one of your stops when in town!

Am drinking last 2016 SRH Pinot as I write. WOW! Excellent wine at a great price point. Can't wait to try more vintages.

We stopped by this tasting room when the one we were looking for opened later than expected. The gentleman was standing out on the porch, enjoying the beautiful day, and he smiled and made eye contact with us as we were waiting. We decided to go over and try the wines. Why not? I wish I could remember his name, but he was just full of facts and local information. He was able to tell us all about the wines, the vineyards, the blends, and everything and anything that we needed to know about the central coast. We enjoyed our time at the tasting room and would go back again to enjoy their wines. It was a great time and a good value as well.

As a local, I know how many wineries there are to choose from. What I love about Kessler-Haak is the wine, of course. But what really sets them apart is their respect for nature and their great service! Fred is kind, knowledgeable, and a real people person . The owner, Dan is also a really nice guy and it is always fun to see him. I love that they grow their grapes with a long-term vision of honoring the earth and those animals with which they co-exist. Though not certified organic, they use more than just sustainable practices. Eating organic food, its always a pleasure to have a bottle of their great wines to pair it with. My personal favorites are their Ohana, rose, and their sparkling wines are also wonderful. Great wines and lovely people... what better way to spend some time on the Central Coast?
