About Sanguis Wine
Sanguis Wine is named from the Latin sanguis — blood, the vital fluid, the carrier of oxygen and nutrients that sustains animal life. Applied to wine, the sanguis naming invokes the ancient identification of wine with blood across multiple religious and cultural traditions, from the Christian Eucharist to the Roman world's ritual libations. The Sta. Rita Hills boutique produces Syrah and Grenache from the most dramatically Pacific-exposed vineyard sites in the appellation with the blood-philosophy naming that declares the estate's commitment to making wines of profound depth and vital character. Wine Advocate has scored Sanguis's Syrah at 93–96 points.
