Winemaker Notes
This Marsanne is rich and complex, exhibiting layers of bright honeysuckle, tangerine, citrus, slivered almonds and wet stone, finishing with integrated spiciness, petroleum, firm acidity and a long finish. This wine pairs very well with spicy meals, seafood, and is also a great wine to sip and enjoy on its own.

- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The goal of Beckmen Vineyards is to become the most prominent family owned vineyard estate in Santa Barbara County. Rhone style wines cultivated from Purisima Mountain Vineyard will be their contribution to the next chapter of winegrowing in the Santa Ynez Valley. To appreciate this goal is to be able to understand the history of the Santa Barbara Wine country and the pioneering spirit of Tom Beckmen and his family.
In 1996 Beckmen Estate Vineyards purchased Purisima Mountain Vineyard a 365-acre Estate overlooking the Santa Ynez Valley, where there are ideal soils and climate for Rhone varieties. They began planting in 1997 and have completed a total of 130 acres at this time. The high density plantings are designed to optimize different hillside exposures and elevations.
