OUR VINEYARDS

The Sta. Rita Hills AVA

At SAMsARA, we believe that all of the important work should be done in the vineyard, with little handling or manipulation of the fruit once it reaches the winery. Winegrowing at SAMsARA starts with selecting special sections within each vineyard where soils, altitudes, slopes, and elevations will bring the best out of the vine. With each section, the aim is to have “healthy vines in extreme conditions”. 

As there is a direct, inverse relationship between the quantity of grapes a vine produces and their quality, all of the SAMsARA sections are purchased by the acre – SAMsARA pays the same price no matter how little fruit is produced.

OUR CELLAR PRACTICES

Low-Intervention Winemaking

At SAMsARA Wine Co., we work hard in the vineyard to ensure the grapes we harvest have perfect ripeness, flavor, acidity, and tannins each year. Once the harvested fruit reaches our winery, we intervene as little as possible, allowing the unique terroir of each vineyard and vintage to shine through authentic aromatics and flavors. The result is the utmost expression of the fruit, soil, and site instead of winemaker manipulation.
