Hello Friends,

Being back at the winery has been such a joy. It was difficult for Joey to be in two places at once while we were operating both locations, so he's especially enjoyed reconnecting with familiar faces and meeting so many of our newer members.

Please note: We will be closing a little early this Saturday at 4:00 pm.

This Week's TGIF Special

2021 Providence

Providence is one of our favorite blends, bringing together Syrah, Sangiovese, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Inspired by the classic Super Tuscan style, it offers beautiful balance with rich fruit, savory spice, and a long, smooth finish.

🍷 TGIF Special 🍷
$30 per bottle | $300 per case

If you'd like me to set a few bottles aside for pickup or ship a case on Monday, just let me know.

Parking Update
Our new Chestnut Street gate is now open! Please park on Chestnut between F Street and G Street and enter through the gate. Even if the F or G Street gates are open when you arrive, please use Chestnut parking, as those gates will likely be closed by the time you leave.

❄️ Dress warm! The winery stays cool year-round, and temperatures below 60 degrees have a way of chilling you to the bone.

🐾 A friendly reminder: We love dogs, but pets are not permitted inside the winery. Trained service dogs are always welcome and must remain under their handler's control and by their side at all times. Thank you for helping us create a comfortable experience for everyone.

We look forward to seeing you this weekend!

Cheers,

Sara, Tina & Joey 🍷

Hello Friends,

The first week back at the winery was an absolute success, and we are so excited for week two! It was wonderful seeing so many of you browse our library collection, revisit favorite vintages, and discover bottles that hold special memories. If you haven't explored the library yet, we invite you to come uncover a few treasures of your own.

2022 Portico Hills Grenache

This week's feature is our 2022 Portico Hills Grenache, a bright, fruit-forward wine with vibrant red berry flavors, subtle spice, and the perfect balance for warm summer evenings.

This week's TGIF special is our 2023 Theresa Noelle Pinot Noir. 

🍷 TGIF Special 🍷

The case price simply can't be beat, so if you'd like me to stash or ship a case, just let me know.

Now for a little housekeeping.

The winery is located at 300 North G Street, Unit C. For this week only, please enter through the F Street gate and park next to our building. Next week, our new gate will be installed, making parking much more convenient from Chestnut Street.

A few other exciting changes...

We've opened up our Library Collection! Feel free to browse and purchase any library wine for $60 per bottle. These wines have been aged to perfection and date back to 2006.

We've also introduced a new system to track sales and tastings. Going forward, tastings will be $4 per pour, allowing you to mix and match, revisit your favorites, or enjoy just a little more of a wine you love. As much as this pains us (because generosity is kind of our thing!), we're also passionate about keeping Transcendence thriving for years to come.

We can't wait to welcome you into the new space!

Cheers,

Sara, Tina & Joey 🍷

This weekend is also a great time to pick up your wine club from last month or any bottles you may have stashed at the tasting room. If you can't make it, don't worry, your wine is in good hands and will be waiting for you at the winery.

As many of you know, entrepreneurship is a journey of constant learning, adapting, and growing. After much thought, we have decided to bring our tasting room operations back home to the winery on G Street. 🍷

And truthfully, we are excited.

We cannot wait to welcome our Transcendence family back to the winery, getting back to our roots and filling that space once again with laughter, conversation, and good cheer. 🥂✨ The winery has always been the heart of Transcendence, and we look forward to creating many new memories there with all of you. ❤️

As we head into Memorial Day weekend, we also want to take a moment to remember and honor those who gave their lives in service to our country. We are deeply grateful for their sacrifice and for the families who carry that loss every day.

Wishing you a safe, meaningful, and relaxing holiday weekend.

Hello Friends,

This week’s TGIF is a little different and very close to our hearts.

We are dedicating today’s TGIF in memory of our dear friend Don, who recently passed. Don, along with his wife Madeline, owns Adobe Canyon Vineyard in the Los Olivos AVA. Don was a passionate vineyard owner with a generous heart, a deep love for wine, and an unwavering commitment to both his vineyard and the people around him. We loved working with him over the years, and he will be deeply missed.

In honor of Don and the beautiful fruit from Adobe Canyon Vineyard, today’s TGIF Special features three 2021 wines from this special place. These wines each tell a different story, but together they reflect the character, warmth, and spirit that Don brought to everything he did.

2021 Tempranillo
2021 Sangiovese
2021 Providence

TGIF Special — $30/bottle or $300/mixed case

Thank you for raising a glass with us in Don’s memory.

Hello Friends,

Your wine club will be ready for pickup in the tasting room today, starting at 4 pm!

This week’s TGIF is something brand new for us and a wine I’m especially excited to share. We are releasing our very first Portico Hills Grenache from Los Alamos.

2022 Portico Hills Grenache
TGIF Special — $30 per bottle or $300 per case

Grenache is one of those wines that seems to fit this time of year perfectly. Bright, expressive, and full of energy, it tends to show beautiful red fruit, subtle spice, and a softness that makes it incredibly easy to enjoy.

Spring 2026

Hello Friends,

There is a moment each season when the wine stops being a project

and stands on its own, accomplished. For us, that moment lands

right about now. The bottling is done. The cellar has gone quiet in

the best way. We are topping barrels, pulling inventory, renewing

fruit contracts, and doing the slower, steadier work of caretaking

what is still aging. It is the part of the year where you can finally

exhale.

It feels a little like the last day of school. Everything you worked

toward is either in the bottle or nearly there. Summer stretches out

ahead. Harvest is coming, but not yet. For a few weeks, there is just

this. This release belongs to that moment.

The 2023 Theresa Noelle Pinot Noir comes from the top of Sweeney

Canyon in the Sta. Rita Hills, where wind, elevation, and marine

influence do most of the work for us. This vintage leans especially

into balance. There is depth here, but nothing heavy. It holds its

shape beautifully.

Alongside it, the 2022 Portico Hills Grenache from Los Alamos brings

something entirely different. A warmer site with broader shoulders

and a little more generosity. Where the Pinot is precise, the Grenache

is open and inviting.

And then there is the 2025 Rosé from Vogelzang Vineyard, a different

spirit entirely. This is the wine for late afternoons that quietly

become evenings. You pour a glass at 4:30 and suddenly it is 8:00 and

the light is starting to fade. Bright, fresh, and easy in the best

possible way.

We do not ship again until October, so these wines have the whole

summer ahead of them. Take them to the graduation party. Open one

on vacation. Pour them for friends on a Tuesday night with no

particular reason. The warm months have a way of filling up with

moments worth marking, and that is exactly what these are for.

Enjoy your summer. We will see you in the fall.

Sara, Joey, Tina, Caitlin, and Heather

Hello Friends,

I have a treat for you this week. The 2023 Theresa Noelle Pinot Noir is outstanding, and I am genuinely excited to share it with you. This new release is part of your Spring Wine Club and is also featured as this week’s TGIF.

Theresa Noelle Vineyard sits at the top of Sweeney Canyon in the Sta. Rita Hills, almost directly south of our tasting room. It is a special site, and this vintage really shows it. Expressive, balanced, and one of those bottles that disappears a little too quickly.

Hello Friends,

This week’s TGIF Special is one I always recommend buying two of — one to enjoy now, and one to cellar.

2022 Happy Canyon Cabernet Sauvignon
TGIF Special — $30 per bottle or $300 per case

This is classic Happy Canyon Cab — structured, layered, and built to age, but drinking beautifully right now. 

Let me know if you’d like to pick up, stash a few, or have it shipped out on Monday.

Also… a little preview of what’s coming 👀

Many of you have been patiently waiting for the Rosé, and I’m happy to say the 2025 Rosé is almost here and will be included in the next wine club release. Alongside it, we’re releasing two wines I’m especially excited about:

• 2023 Theresa Noelle Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sta. Rita Hills)

• 2022 Portico Hills Grenache (Alisos Canyon)

It’s a really fun lineup — a little something for everyone, and a couple that I think will go quickly.

Wine Club Schedule:

• Monday, April 27 — Wine club emails go out (you’ll have about a week to make any changes)

• Monday, May 4 — Credit cards charged

• Wednesday, May 6 — Wine club ready for pickup in the tasting room

• Monday, May 11 — Wine club shipments go out

Looking forward to sharing these with you.

Hello Friends,

This week’s TGIF Special is something close to my heart: our 2021 Sangiovese from Adobe Canyon Vineyard.

Adobe Canyon is tucked away in the hills of the Los Olivos District. It is quiet, beautiful, and a little off the beaten path. It is a small, family vineyard, and we are fortunate to make all of the wine that comes from it. That kind of relationship is rare, and it shows up in the glass.

The 2021 Sangiovese is vibrant and expressive, with red cherry, a hint of spice, and that earthy backbone that makes Sangiovese so food-friendly and easy to love. It is the kind of wine that does not need a special occasion, but somehow makes any night feel like one.

Hello Friends,

Some of you may remember this wine by its former name, Pay Dirt. A trademark issue (with a rather determined Paso winery 😊) led us to rename it, and honestly, Providence feels like it was always meant to be.

This blend is one of those rare, complete moments where the whole truly becomes greater than the parts. Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, and Syrah come together in a way that just works.

A couple of our wonderful members shared this photo of a bottle they’ve been cellaring, and it made my week. I love seeing these wines enjoyed and remembered.

🍷 Hello Friends,

Daylight Saving Time has always been a bit of a mystery to me, especially after living in several places that don’t practice it at all. Regardless, it’s something I look forward to every year. That extra hour of sunlight and the feeling that the days stretch on just a little longer is such a treat. Spring evenings, a glass of wine, and a little more daylight… I’ll take it. ☀️

This week’s TGIF special is a favorite:

🍷 2021 Sangiovese – Adobe Canyon Vineyard
