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.

Enjoy,
Sara

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.

2021 Sangiovese
TGIF Special — $30 per bottle or $300 per case

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

Enjoy,
Sara

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,

With 90-degree temperatures, it’s hard to believe this is the final week of winter here on the Central Coast. Thankfully, the tasting room is staying cool with air conditioning and those perfect coastal breezes on the deck.

This week’s TGIF special is the 2022 La Encantada Pinot Noir. It will be the final TGIF feature for this wine before it sells out.

This pretty outrageous case special is exclusively for our wine club members… because you’re outrageously special to us.

🍷 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

A beautiful, food-friendly Sangiovese with bright character and classic structure — perfect for weekend dinners or simply enjoying a glass as the sun lingers a little longer in the evening.

$30 per bottle

Dear Friends,

Thank you for being part of our wine club and for continuing to support what we are building at Transcendence. We truly could not do this without you. This release is a beautiful reflection of why we do what we do. Each wine represents a specific place, a specific season, and a steady, intentional approach to winemaking. These are wines made without shortcuts and without noise. Just honest wines that we are proud to share with you. In this release, depending on your selections, you will enjoy:

2025 Happy Canyon Sauvignon Blanc
Bright, fresh, and expressive, with vibrant citrus and a clean, balanced finish.

2023 Honey Pot Late Harvest Chardonnay
Lush and honeyed, balanced by natural acidity. A perfect after dinner wine.

2023 G Street Pinot Noir
Elegant cool climate Pinot Noir with nuance, structure, and quiet complexity.

2022 Happy Canyon Cabernet Sauvignon
Structured and restrained, built for aging while letting the vineyard speak.

Joey has spent more than two decades working quietly across Santa Barbara County, building his career through reliability and integrity rather than visibility. His focus has always been on good farming, thoughtful blending, and making wines that are structurally sound and meant to age. He is detail driven, calm under pressure, and known for being honest with owners and growers, even when the truth is uncomfortable. That approach has earned him the trust of people who rely on him with important fruit, complex situations, and long-term projects.

Transcendence is simply an extension of that mindset. Small production. Cool climate focused. Deeply personal. These wines are not designed to chase trends or trophies. They are made to be opened, shared, and remembered, becoming part of meaningful moments around the table.

Thank you again for being part of this journey with us. We hope you enjoy this release as much as we enjoyed crafting it.

With gratitude,

Sara, Joey, Tina, Caitlin, and Heather

Hello Friends,

First, a little business. Our tasting room will open on Friday at 4 pm . We have a private party earlier in the day, so thank you for your patience.

And now… for the HONEY POT 🍯💫
This is a totally new wine for us, and we are so excited to finally share it with you.  The 2023 HONEY POT Late Harvest Chardonnay will be debuting this week as our TGIF Special.

It tastes exactly like it sounds — a dreamy pot of golden honey 🍯✨.

When do you drink a late-harvest Chardonnay? 🤔
• After dinner 
• With dessert 
• Poured over vanilla ice cream 🍨😍
• Or just sipping while chatting with your besties

Basically… anytime you want a little sweetness in your life.

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.
