    About Us

    Dean Tait and Carrie Sayler are the proprietors of Sayler-Tait Family Cellars. When the
    kids came along we really became the Sayler-Tait's. Dean began collecting wine in
    2000. In 2005 - with the help of the great team at Crushpad - we were able to realize a
    dream of making our own ultra-premium wine.

    We do everything as a family so, making wine is no different. We start with the very best
    fruit we can source from the best vineyards in California. Then with as little intervention
    as possible we produce ultra-premium wines.

    We produced our first
    Syrah in 2005 and
    added Viognier in 2006.

    Dean was involved most
    at crush but we also got
    our hands dirty as a family.
    Here is a picture of
    Alexander, Dean and
    Madison taken in
    November of 2006 after
    we put the Alder Springs
    Syrah in barrel.



    We produce wines from Syrah and Viognier, grapes whose roots can be traced back to
    the Northern Rhône in France. Rhône wines may not be as civilized as Bordeaux wines
    or as elegant as those from Burgundy but they are honest earthy wines. Kinda like us!
