Lucas & Lewellen Winter Wine Down

Escape to California’s Santa Ynez Valley this winter for a cozy, wine-filled retreat at the legendary Alisal Ranch. The Winter Wine Down with Lucas & Lewellen is a three-night getaway from January 25 – 28, 2026 that blends rustic luxury with curated wine experiences, western hospitality, and wide-open adventure.

Your stay includes two private wine tastings hosted by the Lucas & Lewellen team—plus a welcome cowboy cookout featuring live music, western-style fare, and generous pours of L&L wine. Start your morning with a scenic horseback ride to the Old Adobe for a traditional cowboy breakfast and wind down each evening with a fireside s’mores session and after-dinner drinks in the classic western bar.

Each guest receives two activity credits per night, with one included group activity per day. Experience the thrill of horseback riding through rolling hills and oak trees, a quintessential part of our luxury guest ranch experience. For those seeking a more modern adventure, our guided electric mountain bike tours offer an exhilarating way to discover the hidden gems of Alisal’s vast terrain, providing a unique blend of excitement and scenic beauty. Golf enthusiasts will revel in the opportunity to play on our championship golf courses; each designed to challenge and delight players of all skill levels amidst stunning landscapes. Add a touch of adventure to your stay with archery, air rifle and axe throwing sessions or cast a line and fish from our 100-acre Alisal Lake.

Slow down and savor every sip this winter! Reserve your spot today.
