About Municipal Winemakers Santa Barbara
Municipal Winemakers is Dave Potter's Funk Zone original: the industrial-chic Santa Barbara tasting room that helped define the beachside district's wine scene, pouring his playfully labeled Bright White, Dark Red and friends with picnic-table conviviality. Potter's serious training, including Australian and county cellars, backs the casual front.
The formula, honest wines, no pretense, good times, made Municipal a Funk Zone institution and a template for urban tasting culture. Catalog note: this listing's file identity references another producer and is flagged for slug correction in our records.
