As is our tradition, ahead of each wine club release we like to share a little preview with our TGIF friends.

This week, we are delighted to pre-release our 2023 G Street Pinot Noir, a beautifully balanced expression sourced from Theresa Noelle Vineyard and La Encantada Vineyard. Elegant, expressive, and effortlessly drinkable, this Pinot is already showing just how special the vintage is.

Hello Friends,

Our 2021 Providence is a beautifully balanced blend of Syrah, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Sauvignon. It is rich yet graceful, expressive yet approachable. This is the kind of wine that effortlessly fits every table and every gathering.

Why we love it for the holidays and TGIF at Transcendence 🍷

•  Incredibly food-friendly. From roasted meats and winter vegetables to cheese boards and cozy pastas, Providence pairs with almost everything.

• Crowd pleasing without being ordinary. It has depth and character, but remains smooth and inviting for all palates.

• A meaningful gift. Elegant, versatile, and memorable. A bottle that feels thoughtful, whether you are bringing it to dinner or gifting it to someone you love.

Also, for TGIF this week, we have the last few bottles of the 2021 SRH Chardonnay. Stock up for holiday dinners, hostess gifts, and those evenings that call for something special.

TGIF Special: $30 per bottle or $300 per case — feel free to mix and match.
Please let me know if you'd like to pick up, stash, or ship after the holidays.

We will be closed for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Cheers!
Sara

I hope you all had a wonderful few days off with your family and friends. It was a whirlwind for us, and I was reminded (very quickly!) that I can’t party like a 21-year-old anymore — LOL.

Hello Friends,

With this being the last warm weekend for a while, I couldn’t resist adding a final splash of summer to our TGIF lineup — our 2023 Rosé of Grenache from Vogelzang Vineyard is back for one last weekend. I have just a small amount left, so it may disappear after this round… or it might stick around a little longer. It all depends on who’s feeling rosy this weekend. 😉

Hello Friends,

Harvest always brings reflection, and this year feels especially meaningful. For the past 25 years, Joey and I have kept a record of every single pick, every varietal, every vineyard, every vintage. Looking back through those pages, we realized that this year was the latest harvest we’ve ever had—almost two weeks later than any in our history. It’s one more reminder that no two vintages are alike, and each tells its own story.

This release also brings some fun milestones worth celebrating: the 2023 Zotovich Chardonnay is our 13th vintage, the 2022 La Encantada Pinot Noir marks our 11th vintage, and the 2021 Providence is our 9th vintage of crafting this Super Tuscan–style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, and Syrah. Each one reflects not just the vineyard and the vintage, but also the long relationships with growers that make these wines possible.

Life at home has shifted, too. With both kids out on their own adventures, the house is quieter these days, no teenagers coming and going at all hours! While we miss that energy, Joey and I are deeply grateful for this new season of connection, with more time to reflect, dream, and pursue our lives in new ways.

As many of you know, the winery was built in the margins of our lives—late nights and weekends after long days at our “regular” jobs. That rhythm shaped who we are as winemakers and as a family. This August, alongside the winery, I re-opened my consulting practice. The timing feels right, and I now serve as a Cultural Transformation and AI Adoption leader, guiding organizations across industries to embrace technology and innovation while keeping people at the center of change.

Through it all, the winery remains our anchor, a place of joy, creativity, and

connection. Every glass carries not only the story of the vineyard and our family but also becomes part of your story, your time, your place, your moments shared. That is the greatest gift of all.

With warmth and gratitude,

Sara, Joey, Tina, and Caitlin
