“Bien Nacido, Kimsey, Larner, Peak, Moulds. Exquisite wines from some of the most storied vineyards in Santa Barbara are front and center at Dalita and Duncan Harmon’s Terre et Sang, a new tasting room on Los Olivos’ main drag that showcases the wines of the same name, produced at the mother-son duo’s winery in nearby Buellton — the best Grenaches I’ve ever tasted from Santa Barbara County.”

“Right out of the gate, Terre et Sang has garnered favorable reviews from top critics and attracts a steady stream of visitors to its small tasting room in Los Olivos, California.”

“Wineries are launched by all sorts of partnerships between family members and friends of varying experience levels. But Terre et Sang is the first strictly mother-son project in memory, at least for this region, and one in which neither mom Dalita Harmon nor son Duncan Harmon had ever worked in a vineyard or cellar prior to their inaugural 2019 vintage.”

“What they lacked in practical wine production experience was more than made up for by passion, vision, intense learning, and daring. Mother and son duo Dalita and Duncan Harmon knew exactly what they wanted to do when they launched Terre et Sang: make top shelf Grenache and Syrah.”

“Dalita and Duncan Harmon have always loved wine. Mother and son, they decided in 2019 to turn their passion into a family business, settling in Santa Barbara County amidst some of the best vineyards in the world, and launching wine label Terre et Sang.”
