Details: Flying Goat Cellars celebrates polo, rodeo, riding to hounds and more with the “Eqwinery”* exhibit. Proprietor Kate Griffith combines her passions for equine and wine in the exhibit, including paintings, lithographs, photos, memorabilia and gear. In particular, lithos from world class equestrian/sporting artists Henry Koehler (1927-2018) and Sam Savitt (1917-2000) and vintage illustrations from Harper’s Weekly, A Journal of Civilization, are on display. A focal point of the exhibit is the revered 10-goal polo legend “Memo” Gracida and his wife, Meghan, who own the first class La Herradura Polo Club & Equestrian Center located in Santa Ynez Valley. Griffith first met Memo and his 10-goal brother, Carlos, at Rancho Santa Fe Polo Club over 30 years ago. By coincidence, Memo and Griffith have both ended up in Santa Barbara County. Flying Goat Cellars is now proud to be the MVP sponsor for the La Herradura Polo Club this season.
