These wines are made by two friends from different continents. Union Sacre exists at the meeting of worlds. Made by two long time friends, Xavier and Philip, who arrived at the Central Coast from opposite ends of the Earth. Xavier is a WSET certified, oenology degree holding ex-boxer from France, Philip is a self-taught designer from Michigan who kind of misses living in a van.
Between the two of them, Xavier and Philip have 25+ years experience working in Central Coast wineries. Xavier has been cellar master or assistant winemaker for some of the Central Coasts most luminous wineries, including: Sans Liege, Arcadian and Herman Story. Philip cut his teeth at Proof Wine Collective before taking on the creative director role at Herman Story and Desparada.

TASTINGS, CLUB & CONTACT
We are currently in the messy process of building out our tasting room, which if all goes smoothly, should be open before harvest, 2019. In the meantime, we are happy to host a tasting for you in the cellar. To schedule an appointment, just click HERE to let us know when you'd like to come by and how to get a hold of you.
ESTABLISHED IN THE CENTRAL COAST OF CALIFORNIA, 2014.
Union Sacre is proudly located in Paso Robles’ Tin City, a collection of some of the newest, brightest vinous diamonds in the Central Coast of California.
THE WINE
The wines of Union Sacre are focused on elegant, single vineyard, single varietal wines that are table friendly. Varietals include: Gewurztraminer, Riesling, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Sangiovese.
Union Sacre is an homage to beauty’s odd ability to build unexpected bridges. These are not wines of privilege and power, these are wines made from a lifetime of labor for the untelevised tables that unite the very heart of the world.
