And just like that, we closed out another unforgettable Summer Sundowner season with a bang! 🎶

Our final concert of the summer brought a sold-out crowd to Lester Estate W**es for a night of classic rock hits by The Lost Boys Band!

Add homemade flautas from S.C . Eatery, flowing w**e, and Pleasant Valley vineyard views, and you get the perfect finale to an extraordinary season.

We’re incredibly grateful for the support that made this summer so special. Until next time... 🍷

The w**e is what we make. The community is what makes us!

At Lester Estate W**es, it has always been about more than what’s in the bottle. It’s about family and friends, the staff who welcome you in, the talented vintners, our w**e club members, and a community that continues to show up year after year.

These are the people who give this place its spirit.

The harvest days, shared tables, celebrations, and friendships all become part of what Lester Family Vineyards is, and what it was always meant to be.

If you haven’t been part of our story yet, we’d love to welcome you in. 🍷

At our Tasting Barn, the experience extends far beyond what’s inside.

Founder Dan Lester’s passion for world history and cultures took him across the globe, from South Africa to the Amazon, where he collected sustainably sourced treasures that are now respectfully displayed in our Tasting Barn.

Step outside, and the story shifts to the landscape itself, with sweeping views of our vineyards. Our rotating tasting flights invite you to explore the subtle ways place and vine shape each w**e.

Join us in the Santa Cruz Mountains every Saturday from 12-5 pm this summer. 🍷

First harvest of the season for our sparkling w**e 🍇

The Pinot Noir and Chardonnay for our sparkling w**es are the first clusters of the season picked, promising higher levels of acidity and lower sugar content in the grapes. These desirable characteristics help create balance and structure in the finished w**e.

Naturally low-yielding, each vintage begins with a commitment to thoughtfully stewarding the land at Lester Family Vineyards.

Cheers to a beautiful season ahead and good w**e to come!
