Profile

Christine Bruce and John Hilliard met in their native Houston where they discovered their shared love of wine. They moved to what is now their home at the 101 acre Hilliard Bruce estate in the north west of the Santa Rita Hills AVA, nestled in the coastal portion of Santa Barbara County.
 
Their hillside, cool climate vineyards produce a small yet exceptionally high quality range of Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays that are among the purest expression of their respective grape varieties. Regional legend Greg Brewer was appointed as the Winery Director in 2015, with John and Christine at the helm.
 
The maritime climate helps to produce beautiful wines reminiscent of the great Crus of Burgundy where Greg first learnt his trade. They have become favourites of the major critics and can only continue to go from strength-to-strength with Greg at the helm.
