Windmill Ranch And Vineyard is where generations of dedication meet the rich terroir of Ballard Canyon. Raise a glass to Saarloos And Sons Syrah — crafted with patience, poured with pride.
Tucked along Ballard Canyon Road, Windmill Ranch And Vineyard has been a quiet cornerstone of the Solvang wine scene for generations. What began as a family dream — to grow grapes that truly speak of this place — has grown into something far richer.
Our Saarloos And Sons Syrah is the heart of what we do. Named in honor of family, each bottle carries the character of our rocky, well-drained soils and the cool evening breezes that roll down from the Santa Ynez Mountains. It's a wine that asks for nothing more than a patient pour and a moment to linger.
