The Story Behind the Crown She didn’t inherit the crown — she made it her own.
WHEN SHE WAS KING began with a question: what if a wine could tell the story of strength without apology? What if it could channel the kind of power that doesn’t wait to be seen, but stands up and unapologetically demands our attention?

From this vision, we created a wine that breaks the mold: GSM blends grown on the untamed slopes of Paso Robles’ west side, where coastal winds from the Templeton Gap push the vines to fight, to root deep, to thrive. Grenache brings wild red fruit and unpredictable energy. Syrah delivers weight and shadow. Mourvèdre grounds it all in earthy, quiet confidence.
It’s not soft. It’s not safe. It’s WHEN SHE WAS KING.
A STORY IN EVERY GLASS. A RECKONING IN EVERY BOTTLE.
