It is a very interesting vineyard with one part planted on the floor of the canyon, the other part planted on a steep hillside. <o:p> </o:p>  I usually think of vineyards planted on the flats to be inferior because they often grow with excessive vigor, however in this case the vines grow with difficultly and produce a small, quality crop—because they are planted on nutrient poor sand. Also, because the cool night air collects in the canyon bottom, the grapes from this area are later ripening, higher in acidity and amazingly intense in flavor and color. By contrast, the hillside fruit ripens earlier in the season and the wine made from it is soft and flamboyant, so the two sites compliment each other and together they made a terrific wine. <o:p> </o:p> This is a big juicy, peppery, fruity syrah that is straightforwardly delicious. Drink it today or drink it in the future and you will not be disappointed. <LI>SKU: 05SYVwc Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/ojai/Category4" TITLE="The Ojai Vineyard Wine Club">The Ojai Vineyard Wine Club</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/ojai/Product38 TITLE="The Wine club membership">The Wine club membership</A> -- The Wine club membership <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/ojai/Product61 TITLE="The only red Wine club membership">The only red Wine club membership</A> -- The only red Wine club membership <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/ojai/Product81 TITLE="2007 SOLOMON HILLS Chardonnay wc">2007 SOLOMON HILLS Chardonnay wc</A> -- 2007 SOLOMON HILLS Chardonnay <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/ojai/Product83 TITLE="OJAI RED wc">OJAI RED wc</A> -- OJAI RED - Non Vintage - California <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/ojai" TITLE="THE OJAI VINEYARD Products">THE OJAI VINEYARD Products</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">pinot noir</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">syrah</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">sauvignon blanc</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">chardonnay</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">grenache</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">california wine</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">ojai wine</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">best california pinot</A> <A HREF="http://WWW.OJAIVINEYARD.COM">best wine value</A> THE OJAI VINEYARD <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com" TITLE="shopping cart">shopping cart</A> powered by Nexternal
