2022 Santa Barbara County Syrah ~ Foxtrot Vineyard
Gold Medal ~ Sunset International Wine Competition
THE VINEYARD
Over the years, Brock has acquired and overseen six vineyard development projects for clients in Santa Barbara County. Three of those have become very well-known – Rita’s Crown (Seasmoke Winery), Radian and Bentrock Vineyards (Hilt Winery). All three are located in the Sta. Rita Hills AVA, one of California’s coolest climate growing regions. Foxtrot was the most recent one he acquired. This young vineyard is adjacent to the Sta. Rita Hills AVA, on the ocean side. Cherry-picking our Syrah block rows on this sand-based bench overlooking the valley floor vines, this 2022 vintage was the first harvest for the vines. Brock is especially proud that this is the first vineyard designated wine from “his” Foxtrot Vineyard. He is confident Foxtrot will become very well-known to wine buffs in the future.
