Syrah
This 2003 Syrah is composed of Reeves Ranch (Dan and Meghan Reeves' Headquarters) and Black Oak Vineyard (Reeves' second planting). A blend of the two vineyards, this wine contains the first vintage from Black Oak. This exciting new vineyard consists of three blocks of Syrah planted to four different clones. The vineyards are located in the warmer regions of the Santa Ynez Valley and both are small, boutique vineyards meticulously farmed. Kris works very closely with Felipe Hernandez, the vineyard manager, during the entire growing season to ensure the best quality fruit. As harvest time approaches, Kris monitors and tastes grapes frequently, as she believes that the ultimate ripeness is best determined by flavors rather than Brix levels.
