French style blend. Crisp, floral nose. Heavy Viognier flavor. Lovely. #sansliege — 9 years ago

Serious cranberry and a slight fizz. Hint of spice. Served chilled. Really refreshing. #sansliege wine dinner — 9 years ago
The Spanish Albariño Grape is not a "typical" grape grown in Cali, so I found interest in this. Pale dry straw colored in the glass. Relaxed yet steady nose that follows those of the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc-honey suckle and white peach. After the nose it gets flabby and disjointed. Mixed flavors of tangerine, fruit cocktail and minerals. Lean frame, with a hint of spice on the finish. Drink now. — 8 years ago
Sweet red fruit on the nose and palate with some very attractive aged aromas. Unfortunately there is little to no structure making the wine quite boring and will lead to a short life. #sansliege #grenache #california #santabarbara — 9 years ago

Showing well. Very alcoholic and big but some wonderful complexity developed over an hour or so. Blue and black fruit dominated with some orange in the background. Firm structure and nice length. Very delicious. #sansliege #grenache #syrah #mourvedre #viognier #santamariavalley #california #usa #ctbucklinwine — 8 years ago
