After 22 years as the premier producer of Happy Canyon Sauvignon Blanc we are back to where we began with the production of small lots of vineyard specific wines. We firmly believe this very special region of Santa Barbara County produces world-class wines. The high mineral (low nutrient) soils of the Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara AVA automatically put this wine into a special category. The tremendous diurnal temperature swings (lowest lows to the highest highs and back to the lowest lows in one day) along with reductive winemaking, bâtonnage, results in mineral quality, a textured palate and savoriness. Additionally, an ability to age for ten to twenty years. The stunning Vogelzang Vineyard is once again part of the repertoire and rightly so. We selected four barrels to make this Single-Vineyard lot and aged them a little bit longer to shine alone. This is a classic expression of Sauvignon Blanc from an extraordinary place. 124 cases made.
A balanced approach between fruit and minerality. There is an earthiness balanced with white pear, bready texture and a high-toned nerviness. Rich and expansive with good acidity and a long finish.
- Color: Gold with green and yellow hues.
- Aroma: Very aromatically complex with sweet slightly tropical fruits with layers of sweet butter, toast and cream.
- 265 cases produced

This is almost completely dry with just a touch of sweetness. Perfect with Sushi, Thai and Vietnamese food. More than half of this fruit came from the great Riesling Site at Kick-On Ranch.
Juicy and concentrated on the palate, mineral-driven and pure, with and excellent finish. Overall the persistent soft tannins, balanced acidity and loads of fruit bode well for long aging of 15 to 20 years.
- Color: Beautiful dark velvet red hues
- Aroma: Aromas of deep dark wild berries, intense fruit and a black pepper spiciness. As the wine opens more savage and powerful intense notes of olive and black licorice jump out of the glass
- Peak Drinking: Now –and with up to twenty years of bottle age from vintage

The Margerum Tasting Room is located on Mason Street across from the Hotel Californian and we thought this would be a fitting name for an exclusive, not for distribution, wine. This is only our 4th release; this year, it is 100% Syrah made from top cool-climate vineyards in Santa Barbara County. Selected barrels from our cold cellar were chosen for their bold yet approachable character. The wine is aged in French oak to
produce a rich, complex wine.
Bright, fresh, and fruity with fine soft and resolved tannins. Luscious mouthfeel with grip, savory meaty notes paired with dried flowers, spice, purple fruits and surprising persistence.
- Color: Light crimson and ruby red
- Aroma: Framboise, rose petal, watermelon and baking spices, with a hint of country herbs.
- Grape: 100% Grenache
