Nielson is guided by the pioneering spirit of their namesake, Uriel J. Nielson, who planted the first commercial vineyard in California's Santa Barbara County in 1964. The Pinot Noir and Chardonnay express the purity, freshness and vibrancy of Santa Barbara County, and the screwcap closure makes these wines adventure-ready, wherever the road less traveled takes you. We are guided by the pioneering spirit of our namesake, Uriel J. Nielson, who planted Santa Barbara's first commercial vineyard in 1964. This underdog wine region is unpretentious, yet meticulous, and home to pioneers and adventurers who are driven by the love of the vine. The Nielson Vineyard in Santa Barbara County's Santa Maria Valley is our home and represents the legacy of boldness, risk-taking and experimentation embraced by our founders and carried on by our winemaking team today. At the core of our DNA is our proximity to the Pacific Ocean. Coastal wind patterns, marine soils, morning fog and seaside sunsets make Santa Barbara the perfect setting for uncommon wines of stunning minerality, acidity and balance. At Nielson, we employ small lot winemaking techniques such as hand pruning, block-by-block harvesting, barrel fermentations and lees stirring to create wines that beg discovery. View More
