People Helping People’s “Vino de Sueños” is back with a fresh take on
celebrating the superb food and wine of the beautiful California Central Coast on Saturday, April 16, 2022.
Through the generosity of the Gleason Family, we are proud to welcome you to the
Tuxedo Barn at Roblar Farm in Santa Ynez for the ultimate wine country experience.
WELCOME TO ROBLAR FARM | The Ultimate Country Experience
Located next to Roblar Winery & Vineyards, the beautiful estate is home to a stunning event venue, including the grapevine-laden Winemaker’s Pergola running through a vibrant one-acre produce farm; the Tuxedo Barn, a statement piece and perfect for indoor-outdoor experiences; and an exquisitely renovated luxury ranch style home (win a stay in our raffle!) with sprawling lawns, an infinity pool and hot tub.
VINO DE SUEÑOS | Wine of Dreams
Vino de Sueños, “Wine of Dreams,” is a wine brand conceived by the non-profit human services organization, Santa Ynez Valley People Helping People (PHP) in conjunction with a select group of premium Santa Barbara County vintners. Their goal is to make a difference in the lives of the vineyard and farm workers who are the heart and soul of Santa Barbara County’s agricultural economy and more specifically, the vineyard and wine businesses. Founding participant wineries of Vino de Sueños include Alma Rosa, Buttonwood, Clos Pepe, Feliz Noche, Foxen, Longoria, and Presidio.
Becky Barieau has served as the Wine Director for VDS since its inception.
