Highly acclaimed Santa Barbara wines
Welcome to Santa Barbara Wine Country! SAMsARA produces limited releases of boutique wines from carefully selected micro-sites within Sta. Rita Hill's most distinctive vineyards. As the winery's name suggests, the resulting wines are an interpretation of the balance between the natural elements beyond our control and the human desire to reach perfection.
SAMsARA owner, Joan Szkutak, also shines on Women in Tech events, sharing her experience after a successful 33 year career with Procter & Gamble as a Global Research and Development Executive, and now boutique winery owner!
