Vintage
The 2021 vintage proved dry and warm days with an extended bud break and bloom. Crop levels were low, with high quality at harvest. Seductive and precise with incredible depth and sophistication. Despite early accessibility, this Red Blend will continue to be generous for at least another 5+ years.

Reynoso Family Vineyards is in it’s third generation and remains committed to producing small lots of estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Sauvignon Blanc. The remote 550 acre estate was originally purchased in 1994, and since then their grapes have been sold to some of Sonoma's top wine producers including Silver Oak and many others. Reynoso Family Vineyards currently farms 155 of the 550 acres, keeping only a tiny percentage of the finest grapes on the estate for their own wines. Ultimately, their goal is to craft fruit-driven wines that display distinctive varietal character and intensity without sacrificing elegance and their own element of terroir.
