New in Pismo Beach: Sans Liege Wine Tasting Room



Winemaker Curt Schalchlin
Searching for a Syrah in the Great Beyond

 To the delight of Valentina guests, Price Street has turned a deeper shade of burgundy. Indeed, another tasting room has arrived in this Restaurant Row of Pismo Beach, only a block from Valentina Inn & Villas-- Sans Liege. Sans Liege sources its grapes from the finest wineries on the Central Coast, and then channels them into exemplary wines "made complete by the union of their disparate strengths."

As owner and winemaker Curt Schalchlin comments:

"When choosing vineyards to source fruit from, I favor character over notoriety. Each of these sites have a distinctive appeal that separates them from the rest, and very often my sources are locations passed over by other winemakers. In taking up my own journey, I've learned to not discount any field for its quirks and eccentricities, however, for in diversity lies the promise of uncommon opportunity. This is the heart of Sans Liege. The Central Coast is home to a wide variety of climates, soils and topographies, so I keep my boundaries wide open. Though these appellations are each highly-regarded for their production of Rhone varietals, I've found that fruit from my vineyard blocks speak foremost of their individual provenance, a very real story of place, rather than as textbook examples of Mediterranean France."

This beautiful new tasting room in the heart of Pismo Beach is bound to enchant your tastebuds and, under the expert guidance of Schalchlin, enlighten you with the wisdom of a master taster.

Explore the charm and character of Central Coast varietals at Sans Liege on your next stay at Valentina Inn & Villas! Sans Liege Wines is located at 870 Price Street in Pismo Beach.

Pismo Beach . . . Wine and Waves. It's what we do.
