Sauvage Spectrum

Sauvage Spectrum is an estate winery and vineyard located in Palisade, Colorado, within the Grand Valley AVA. The winery is known for its approachable, award-winning wines that define Colorado wine, with a focus on hand-harvested, still and sparkling varieties. Sauvage Spectrum crafts over 26 varietals of wine on-site, using estate-grown grapes from their vineyards in the Grand Valley AVA. The winery's philosophy emphasizes creativity and experimentation, showcasing the versatility of Colorado wines without adhering to traditional methods. The winery was founded in 2019 by Winemaker Patric Matysiewski and Grapegrower Kaibab Sauvage as a partnership aimed at creating a new breed of estate winery. Their first release, Sparklet, is a lifestyle brand focused on fun, fruit-forward, and affordable sparkling wines. Sauvage Spectrum's vineyards are situated in the Grand Valley AVA, where grapes are grown using irrigation from the Colorado River and benefit from the unique "million-dollar breeze" that develops thick skins on the grapes. The winery's owners are hands-on and visible in the production of their wines every day, in both the vineyard and winery. Sauvage Spectrum has gained recognition for its innovative approach to wine-making, with recent awards at the 2026 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition. Visitors can experience the winery's industrial warehouse setting and enjoy a behind-the-scenes look at winemaking through guided tours.
