La Parea (the couple)

Hello Friends,

We just finished two full bottling days and have many new wines to share. I hope you all enjoyed the G Street Pinot Noir last week. For you non-Pinot fans, I have a wonderful TGIF to share this week. This week's TGIF is the 2020 La Pareja, a Rhone blend of Syrah and Grenache. La Pareja means the couple in Spanish. This couple is a blend of 60% Syrah and 40% Grenache. $45/bottle, TGIF=$30/bottle. Let me know if you want to pick up, stash or ship.

I can't believe it is already Labor Day. Enjoy the weekend!

The Pinot Drought is OVER

Hello Friends,

There is both good and bad news in this email. I will start with the bad news. I have to raise our prices. I know I don't have to explain why. I'm sorry, I know you are getting it from all angels in your life as we are. I think for the quality, the price is still the best around. TGIF will go up $30/bottle, and glasses of wine will be $12/$14/$16, depending on the wine.

The good news is I have Pinot Noir for TGIF this week, and I AM NOT RAISING OUR PRICES UNTIL NEXT WEEK!

2021 G Street Pinot Noir. 70% La Encantada Vineyard, 30% Lafond Vineyard with a blend of the following clones; Pommard, 777, and 115. The wine was just bottled, so please keep that in mind. It might be a little "bottle shocky," but I promise it will settle down in a few weeks. $25/bottle, this week only.

There is no limit this week, so please freely stock up while the price is right. Let me know if you want to pick up, stash, or ship (depending on the weather or with your next wine club in October).

We have gone through a lot together in the last few years. Thank you for hanging in there with us!

Sauvignon Blanc

Hello Friends,

The drop-off went well, and Taylor's apartment is so cute and a massive upgrade from the dorms. Our son Sean is in full swing with his Water Polo season, and for the first time, in a long time, things seem to be quite perfect.

Let's TGIF with some Sauvignon Blanc! It is perfect weather for this crisp and refreshing wine. Let me know if you want to pick up, stash, or ship.

Harvest is Coming

Hello Friends,

We are just a few weeks from harvest and are enjoying these last few weeks of summer. It is always a bitter/sweet time for us. Hard to let our family time go, and exciting to see what this vintage will bring.  It is still too early to determine the first day or the first varietal that will come in, but we are excited to work with some new vineyards this year.

This week our TGIF is the 2020 Zotovich Vineyard Chardonnay and the 2020 Silver Linings Syrah for $25/bottle. Let me know if you want to pick up, stash, or ship.

If you have not picked up your wine club from May, we will be contacting you shortly to arrange shipping.

Have a great rest of your week.

Tempranillo!

Hello Friends,

One of our favorite things about the wine club is that we get to revisit the names of our Transcendence Family. There is so much sorting, alphabetizing, order prepping, shipping labels, boxing, taping, etc., that has to be done, and we probably touch each order at least a dozen times. We love to say the names out loud and reminisce about our time with each member. Some of you have been with us since the beginning, and we have so many good stories to share. Some of you are regulars in the tasting room, and Tina catches us up on the news of your life. The darling picture below is an early morning photo of Joey stapling wine club letters to orders. We are sipping coffee and sharing great memories about you all.

THIS WEEK, our TGIF wine is the newly released 2020 Adobe Canyon Vineyard Tempranillo. Let me know if you want to pick up, stash, or ship.

Have a great rest of your week!
