The Offering 2014

Sans Liege "The Offering" Rhone Blend Santa Barbara 2014 It's that wonderful time of year again! Curt Schalchlin just released the new vintage of his highly sought-after wine called The Offering. We tried the 2014 yesterday, and it's wonderful, once again.  This years blend is 47% Grenache, 33% Syrah, 19% Mourvedre and 1% Viognier from some of our favorite Central Coast vineyards (White Hawk, Bien Nacido, Larner and Alta Colina). Find out for yourself why this wine is a total CROWD PLEASER -- stock up for summer barbecues, Labor Day Weekend and the approaching cooler temperatures! Such a unique wine deserves a creative description from its winemaker:  Running through the kitchen you eye the blueberry pie, steam still rising, on the window sill. Your mom sees the mischievous look in your eye and shoos you away with her dish towel. The pie's scent mixes with the aromas of rainbow peppercorn, tapenade and fresh picked strawberries which sit in a bowl on the table. With a screech, the screen door slams and you pick up your Schwinn with the new tires and take off. Flying around the corner you get a whiff of the ocean and the seaweed drying on the sand only a few blocks away. You reach the hideout; your friends have already started the game-cards in hand and a pile of beef jerky and tootsie rolls on the table.
