Sashi Moorman has earned a reputation as one of the New World’s brightest and most compelling winemakers. As is the case for many, Sashi’s deep passion for food brought him into the world of wine. Post-college studies, Sashi cooked professionally in Washington D.C. and New York, though a newfound interest in wine pushed him to Ojai, California, where he worked for five years under the tutelage of celebrated winemaker Adam Tolmach at the Ojai Vineyard. 

Sashi eventually left Ojai to take on the prestigious winemaker role at Stolpman Vineyards, a role that is heavily credited for putting that Santa Barbara winery on the map due to a series of acclaimed wines. In 2009, Moorman set out on his own and founded Provignage, a small, full-service wine company that assists with all aspects of ecological and natural approaches to viticulture and winemaking. Sashi’s holistic vineyard views were shared by Raj Parr, and the pair blossomed a tight friendship over a number of years. Sashi and Raj founded Sandhi in 2011, followed by Domaine de la Côte in 2013. In 2014, the duo began to lead the vineyard stewardship and wine production at Evening Land in Oregon’s Eola-Amity Hills. 

When not crafting wine, Sashi can be found in the kitchen, indulging his love of food with the production of lavish, multi-course meals at tables surrounded by friends and laden with delicious wine.
