Wineries and Vineyards in Santa Monica, CA

5 of the 19 wineries, breweries, distilleries and wine bars we list in Santa Monica are wineries or tasting rooms.

Choosing a winery comes down to the style of visit you want, ranging from production vineyards with estate tours to standalone downtown tasting rooms.

A map location shows distance, but it will not tell you if a spot focuses on casual pour flights or structured, guided cellar tastings.

Good to know

What is the difference between a winery and a tasting room?

A winery is where the wine is actually produced and aged, often located on a vineyard estate. A tasting room may be located off-site in an urban area, serving as a retail location to sample and purchase wines made elsewhere.

Do wineries allow children and non-drinkers?

Policies vary widely by location. Many estate vineyards with large outdoor lawns welcome families and offer non-alcoholic beverages, while smaller or high-end tasting rooms may restrict access to adults aged 21 and over.

How much does a typical wine tasting cost?

Standard tasting flights often range from $15 to $35 per person, depending on the region and the wines poured. Higher-end reserve tastings or private cellar tours can cost significantly more, though fees are sometimes waived with a minimum bottle purchase.
