Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre. A traditional Rhone-style wine. Each grape from a different vineyard in Santa Ynez. One barrel of each was used to create the blend. The unique label a new creation meant to capture the essence of blending wines, colors and life. I call it a Fire Wave. Enjoy now or hold up to 3-4 yrs. -
This year the blend is 50% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Cabernet Franc. The structure is more readily apparent than past vintages. The tannins are layered and complex. The Merlot imparts lovely hints of plum while the Cabernets provide deepening blackcurrent with a hint of eucalyptus. 66 cases produced. -
Sourced from the SYV Vineyard in Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara this is a Rhone Varietal with a velvety and fruit driven profile. The tannins are soft and the wine is very approachable now but will only increase in complexity with time. Easy to Enjoy now or hold up to 2-3 years. 53 cases produced. -

From the Sanger Estate Vineyard this is a big, bold, inky wine. Classic deep purple in color those looking for depth found it.
