A sprawling vineyard estate built by the late real estate developer Tony Vincent Sr. — best known for developing Las Vegas’ original Aladdin Hotel — has hit the market in Santa Ynez Wine Country for $28 million.
Known as Vincent Vineyards, the fully operational, 25-acre winery estate comes with a 6-bedroom Italianate villa, two guesthouses, a tasting room, and 14 acres of premium Bordeaux varietals.
Tony Vincent Sr. and his family acquired the property in 2007, transforming what was then a walnut farm into a boutique winery operation. The vineyards were planted with high-end French clones, and the entire infrastructure was built from scratch to support on-site production at the highest standard.
Today, the estate delivers an ultra-private version of the “vintner lifestyle” — without ever having to leave the property.

Listing details: A $28M, fully functional winery
This rare compound, located just off scenic SR-154 near Los Olivos and Mattei’s Tavern, offers more than a luxury residence — it’s a fully functional winery that handles every stage of production on site, from crushing to bottling and labeling.
The listing includes nearly 25 acres of gated land, a main residence, two guesthouses, full winery production facilities, and a tasting room, all delivered turnkey.
Listed with Neyshia Go and Byron Wood of The Go Group at Sotheby’s International Realty, the estate could easily set a new record for Santa Ynez.
14 Acres of Bordeaux grapes with on-site production
Vincent Vineyards isn’t just a label, it’s a full-scale operation. The estate’s 14 acres of Bordeaux varietals are meticulously maintained and fully supported by an on-site winery and bottling facility.
Every aspect of the wine-making process happens on the property, making this one of the few estates where a vintner can produce and label wine without ever outsourcing.
One of the most notable properties currently up for grabs in the Santa Ynez Valley
“Vincent Vineyards is one of the most spectacular estate properties available in the Santa Ynez Valley,” shares listing agent Neyshia Go with The Go Group at Sotheby’s International Realty. “From the beautifully designed main residence, to the pool house and the manicured grounds, every inch of the property has been thoughtfully programmed and maintained.
“The tasting room and vineyards are truly a unique element that cannot be replicated, and provide a fantastic space to host events on all scales. The Santa Ynez Valley is home to other large estates and vineyards, but none to this caliber or quality with the ability to live a true vintner’s lifestyle.”
Main residence: a 6-bedroom Italianate villa
At the center of the estate is a 6-bedroom Italianate villa designed to take full advantage of its scenic surroundings. This main residence features luxurious en-suite bedrooms, a breakfast room, an elevator, an exercise room, and a primary suite with dual closets and spa-like bathrooms.
Featuring bright, elegant interiors with vineyard views
Oversized windows and covered terraces offer panoramic views of the vines and hills, while interiors strike a balance between classic elegance and relaxed wine country living, giving off the ever-so-popular quiet luxury vibe.
Two private guest houses with full kitchens and suites
The estate includes two guesthouses, each with their own bedroom suites, full kitchens, and spacious living areas. Whether hosting extended family, friends, or wine club VIPs, the setup is perfect for offering privacy and comfort just steps from the vineyard.
Pool pavilion and cabana for laid-back entertainment
Beyond wine, the estate makes space for downtime. A pool pavilion and shaded cabana provide a relaxing backdrop for outdoor entertaining, whether hosting a post-harvest party or a summer weekend with friends.
A tasting room that can host events of all sizes
The on-site tasting room is built for both intimate tastings and large-scale events, making it a standout amenity for a buyer interested in private-label production or maintaining a public-facing winery.
The location — just off a major scenic route and walking distance to Los Olivos — makes it ideal for visibility and foot traffic.
Seven garage bays for the car enthusiast
The property includes seven garage spaces, a rare luxury in wine country estates. There’s plenty of room for classic cars, ATVs, or simply storing equipment for vineyard management and entertaining.
A prime location in the Santa Ynez Valley
Located just minutes from Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, Solvang, and Santa Barbara, this estate sits in one of Southern California’s top grape-growing regions. Its climate and proximity to the ocean make it especially favorable for Bordeaux varietals — an increasingly sought-after asset in California wine production.
“Santa Ynez is arguably one of Southern California’s best regions for growing grapes due to its climate and temperature. It’s located very close to Santa Barbara, Los Olivos and Solvang – and more importantly, the ocean,” agent Neyshia Go tells us.
