Greg Brewer has dedicated his entire winemaking career to an 8 mile stretch of land called Sta. Rita Hills in Santa Barbara wine country. Greg started his career as a French instructor at UC Santa Barbara before being trained in wine production at Santa Barbara Winery in 1991. He created his eponymous label, Brewer-Clifton with original partner Steve Clifton in 1996, making the 2016 vintage wines in this package his 20th vintage. The entirety of his career had been rooted in the Sta. Rita Hills appellation which he helped to map, define and establish in 1997.  

Greg Brewer's primary focus in the winery is the pursuit of refinement. He is engaged in every aspect of his work from vineyards to market (traveling 36+ weeks per year), and every level of the process is given equal attention. To him, a mindful approach where strategic and efficient actions are taken to incorporate the needs of the entire ecosystem is essential. This pursuit creates a confident and calming environment, yielding a space where everyone and everything is appreciated. The goal is the synchronicity of the system. The result is wine that is honest and driven, expressive of the place and the team who collectively stewards them.
