Baehner Fournier Vineyards

Our wines are crafted from grapes handpicked from Bordeaux-cloned vines grown on our estate hillsides here in the warmer Eastern Santa Ynez Valley. We grow three varieties of winegrapes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot while employing sustainable farming techniques. Our annual wine production is about 20 barrels from which we bottle pure varietals of each grape variety plus our signature Cabernet Sauvignon dominant blend "V3"

Brophy Clark

Cellars

Brophy Clark Cellars produces approximately 1,000 cases of wine annually. Working with small lots, John and Kelley are able to handcraft each wine and personally handle all phases of the winemaking process. Vineyard blocks are hand-selected by Kelley and John tailors winemaking techniques to each lot, bringing to life the varietal character and vineyard expression of the fruit.

Harrison Clarke

The Harrison Clarke wines are made with grapes grown in a limestone rich subsoil, consistent with those in the French rhone regions, combined with clay and clay loam soils, creating an exceptional terroir. We make single varietal bottlings of Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvedre, as well as a beautiful rhone style blend and Grenache rose. All grapes are hand harvested, hand sorted, naturally fermented and barrel aged from 18-32 months.

Kimsey Vineyards

In 2008, William and Nancy Kimsey established a small, 22-acre vineyard in the Ballard Canyon appellation of Santa Barbara County. The development of this vineyard was a purposeful one. Devotees of pleasurable, cerebral wines, Bill and Nancy had long searched for a site amenable to growing grape varieties they found most compelling; namely several found in the Rhone region of France; syrah, grenache, viognier and roussanne.

Today, the Kimsey estate vineyard terroir has proven itself cordial to these enduring varieties.
