“We are proud to lovingly tend some of the oldest vines planted and still in production in Santa Barbara County. We are committed to beyond-organic farming, embracing the native ecology, integrating animals, and walking our vineyard rows daily. We believe that unmanipulated wines with energy and a sense of place only come with a deep connection to the land.”

Ravie is a blend of Grenache from Alisos Canyon, Syrah from Coquelicot Vineyard, and Mourvèdre from Martian Ranch Vineyard in Alisos Canyon. A fun and probably atypical expression of a Santa Barbara County GSM. The word ‘ravie’ translates to the feminine version of ‘delighted’ in French. The Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre were harvested and fermented separately with different percentages of the whole cluster. All of the components were pressed gently and aged separately in neutral French oak until about a month before bottling. At that time, the final blend was made. Ravie rested as its final blend for about a month in tank before being bottled, unfined and unfiltered, in July 2024. The final blend is 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre - finishing about 75% whole cluster.
