 In 1978, Walt and Mona Babcock were seeking a retreat from Walt's dental practice and the rigors of being restaurateurs (Walt's Wharf in Seal Beach and Oysters in Corona del Mar). Their search led them to purchase 110 acres of land on the western edge of the Santa Ynez Valley in Santa Barbara County. At that time the area was considered a fledgling wine region. This inspired and prompted the Babcock's to plant a 25-acre vineyard in 1980. By the end of 1983, various notable winemakers had purchased Babcock fruit and made compelling wines. It was quickly becoming apparent that the soil and cool climate of the Babcock estate was ideal for producing ultra-premium wine grapes. |
