Our Story
Sabatia is a boutique winery at the outskirts of Norman Oklahoma. We produce handcrafted, award-winning table wines from regionally sourced grapes. 100% of the grapes used in our wines are Oklahoma grown by family-owned vineyards. We turn quality grapes into award-winning, food-friendly wines using traditional winemaking processes. Sabatia wines are best shared with family and friends around the dinner table.
The Name
Names that tie you to a place are special, sometimes unique, and always memorable. Established in 2015, Sabatia is named after one of the many wildflowers that cover our home property in June. The botanical name is Sabatia campestris, and the common names are Rose Gentian, Prairie Sabatia, or Rose Pink. While this flower can be found throughout the central prairies, there is a large population around us. And no, we do NOT put the flowers in the wine.
