Municipal Winemakers

"Our favorite wine stop in the SB Funk Zone. Quirky and fun old school interior, it’s located in the old Divers Den building (the sign is still up outside!), and has quite the art wall going on to your right when you first walk in. They have goal of making wine that is both beautifully packaged and easy to drink, and they’ve definitely achieved it so far. Come here to stay a while, bring a friend, sit out on their patio, try out a wine flight and have a good time while listening to the waves crash at the beach just a few steps away." - Amanda Proudfit

"Or for a Santa Barbara wine, Municipal Winemakers is David Potter’s Funk Zone winery in a former dive shop." - Sophie Friedman

"There are a number of great tasting rooms in Los Alamos, but MUNI is our favorite. Located in a tiny standalone cabin in front of the Alamo Motel, a typical stop at MUNI goes like this: You come in for a quick wine flight, end up staying for two hours talking to the bartender about Mubbly (and why it tastes so good), then spend all night hanging out on the wooden bench swings outside. If you come on a Saturday in the summer, chances are they’ll be doing an outdoor movie screening as well." - Brant Cox
