LIEU DIT

Lieu Dit is a partnership of longtime friends Eric Railsback and Justin Willett. The two met in Santa Barbara while Eric was finishing college and Justin was just beginning his career in winemaking. The two were among a small group of young winemakers and restaurateurs in Santa Barbara unified by a common interest in wine and all its mysteries. After countless bottles shared together and many trips to France, Railsback and Willett decided to found Lieu Dit in 2011 and focus it solely in the varieties indigenous to the Loire Valley, now grown in Santa Barbara County.

The varied micro-climates and marine based soils of Santa Barbara County are ideally suited to this set of grapes. In each vintage, the quest for purity, elegance, and balance in every wine is paramount.

Sandhi represents a union essential to the production of wine: the collaboration between man, earth, and vine.

An understanding of these joint efforts informs Sandhi’s exploration of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines throughout the Santa Barbara County terroir.
