Experience The Alternative.

Plan B Wine Cellars is a family winery in Ventura, California. We are a husband-and-wife team who decided that jumping into this risky business was preferable to the regret we would have inevitably experienced if we didn’t start a winery when our chance came along. > about us

Wines With Character & Story.

In the wine business you take what nature gives you, and we are rather happy with the results. Our initial release of five Rhone-style wines in October of 2012 will be supplemented with an expanding portfolio, including Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Cabernet and Grenache-Rosé. > view wines

It's Bud Break!

The transition from dormancy to bud break signals a change of rhythm in the vineyard. As the grower watches, vines that appear almost dead blossom into a trellis full of verdant green. First, there is a gradual swelling of the buds. These buds will develop into the leaves and shoots which provide the energy to support the vine and ripen the fruit. > learn more

"The setting at Plan B Wine Cellars is not without romance: On a recent, pre-opening night, the view out the roll-up door was of the city lights twinkling against the sunset in the distance, interrupted only by a passing train."
