Founder Doug Margerum has been involved in food and wine in Santa Barbara for over 35 years. Margerum Wines focuses on varieties indigenous to the Rhône Valley grown from their estate vineyard and exceptional sites in the region. The 2022 Grenache was matured for 10 months in large neutral 500-liter French oak puncheons and foudres, allowing for pure varietal expression. A juicy crowd-pleaser, this wine offers bright bing cherry for days, along with black pepper, and a hint of earth.
