Wine Club

Our own wines are made from the fruit of the certified organic vines of our family’s 5-acre vineyard in the foothills of the Sierra Madre Mountains in the Cuyama Valley of northern Santa Barbara County. These delicious, full-bodied wines are at their prime and come from grapes that are sustainably grown using traditional head-pruned and dry-farmed practices that are soil and water conserving.

Among the grapevines we’ve planted 150 olive trees grown in the same dry-farmed system as the vines. We have six varieties which we blend together to produce an organic olive oil that is full mouthed with a grassy finish and ready to enjoy right after harvest. The olive oil is always offered as part of our December Wine Club Selection.

The Spring Mixed Club Selection features the return of our Pedro Ximénez and our Rosé.

With our Spring Selections, we are very excited to share two new releases nurtured by winemaker Colin McNany:

2019 Rosé. A blend of our organic vineyard’s Zinfandel, Mourvédre and Mission grapes. This dry, crisp wine came in ripe with low sugars and beautiful acidity, so we made the choice to make a ‘Provence” style rosé. Barrel fermented with full malolatic, the wine expresses a lot more body and weight while maintaining a low alcohol content and an electric watermelon color and flavor. Winemaker, Colin McNany, says: “This rosé is nothing short of gorgeous.” 72 cases. 11.5% alc.

2019 Pedro Ximénez. Our goal with this unique white wine was to get more Pedro Ximénez expression into the glass. To capture the varietal personality in the skins, half of the fruit was foot tread and sat on skins for 24 hours before reuniting with the entirety of the vineyard and going to the press. The juice was then barrel fermented followed by malolatic fermentation, all achieved through indigenous yeast. Made from the Andalusian grape, this wine with dry minerality and citrus overtones will bring a smile to your lips and relaxation and joy to your mind. 120 cases. 11.8% alc.

In addition to the new releases, the 6 and 12 bottle selections will included our dry-farmed  Zinfandel and Shiraz. Enjoy these full bodied wine and let the nuances linger in your mouth. Added to the Condor Club 12-bottle Selection, from our private reserve, are two cellared varietals selected to complement your wine club offerings.

Note: For Wine Club Members who prefer to receive all red wines, alternate selections are available.

We look forward to joining you at your holiday table with our Winter Wine Club selection, featuring our freshly harvested and milled 2019 olive oil and the new release of our 2018 Zinfandel. We are thrilled to share with you our certified organic, extra-virgin, dry-farmed olive oil. This year we had an abundant harvest; the trees responded to good rains which led to glorious spring flowering. Enjoy this ‘pure gold’, grassy, peppery, unfiltered oil directly on salads, topping for soups and veggies and, of course, with your favorite bread.

With the new release of our 2018 Zin, our classic wine returns after minimal production during the drought years and a loss of the crop in 2017. It is well worth the wait. This classic Zin is young in the bottle, and has a cherry fruit forward with a smooth finish. This bright wine is ready to drink now or age in the bottle (at least for a few months!).

The Condor Clan and Condor Club Selections also include the new release of our limited 2018 Shiraz (only 25 cases produced). Compare the 2017 (a wet year) and 2018 (a dry year) Shiraz savoring the ‘true grape’ nuances that our dry-farmed system brings.

We’ve had above average, steady rainfall throughout winter. It’s soaked deeply into the soil replenishing the vineyard after a dry 2018. With our Spring Selections, we are very excited to share three new releases:

2017 Shiraz: Possibly our best Shiraz yet. Full-bodied, aromatic, with a lingering smooth finish. 67 cases were produced using an initial whole berry fermentation. Enjoy this deep inky wine with a plum-vanilla essence.

2018 Rosé. We are very pleased to have our dry Rosé back this season. A blend of our organic vineyard’s Zinfandel, Mourvédre and Mission grapes, this dry, crisp wine captures the sage aromatics of the Cuyama Valley. 37 cases were produced.

2018 Pedro Ximénez. The 6 and 12-bottle selections also include the new vintage of our unique white wine. The dry minerality of wine made from this Andalusian grape, with citrus overtones, brings a smile to your lips and relaxation and joy to your mind. 43 cases were produced.

In addition to the new releases, the 6 and 12 bottle selections will have the sumptuous 2016 Old Vine Zinfandel. This will be our final vintage of our Mentor’s Zin grapes and we are pleased to share this with you while it lasts. Enjoy this intense, full bodied wine with its chocolate finish.

We look forward to joining your holiday table with this Winter Wine Club selection, featuring our freshly harvested and milled 2018 olive oil and the new release of our 2016 Mentor’s Old Vine Zin. We are thrilled to share with you our certified organic, extra-virgin, dry-farmed olive oil. This year we only produced 8 gallons of oil, so this limited production will only be available to our Wine Club. There were low yields throughout California due to poor spring flowering conditions. Enjoy this ‘pure gold’, grassy, peppery, unfiltered oil directly on salads, topping for soups and veggies and, of course, with your favorite bread.

The grapes for our 2016 Mentor’s Old Vine Zin come from Benito Dusi’s vineyard in Paso Robles and brings forth the complexity and full fruit forward with a peppery finish of a classic dry-farmed Zinfandel.

Soar with the condors and compare Zins from 3^rd, 4^th and 5th years of our mentor’s 98-year-old vines with wine from the 5^th year of drought from our 18-year-old vines in the Condor Clan and Condor Club Selections.

The Summer Wine Club Selection features two new releases to delight your palette: our 2017 Pedro Ximénez and the Dusi Ranch 2015 Mentor’s Old Vine Zinfandel. As winemaker Colin McNany says about our Pedro Ximénez: “The only thing added is love. It was fermented on its native yeast, no acidic addition, just truly dry-farmed Pedro.” This crisp, acidic white wine has body, minerality and a pear/citrus finish. On warm summer evenings enjoy with cheeses, fish, salads and paella! With a drum roll, we introduce you to our Mentor’s 2015 Old Vine Zin. This 4^th year of drought produced small, concentrated grapes for both the Dusi and our dry-farmed vineyards. (The 6 and 12 bottle Selections will be able to compare the 2015 Zins from both vineyards.) From our first taste of the Mentor’s Zin we knew we had a vintage to savor. You can open it now and enjoy a complex, deep, well-balanced Zin with a dark chocolate finish. And you can lay this wine down for years to come. For all of you Zin lovers, we think you’ll agree with us that this is a ‘Zin Zenith!’

We celebrate the rain-fed 2017 harvest with the new release of two drought year wines that bring forward the intensity and low yields of the drought years. We especially look forward to sharing our 2015 Zinfandel with you, one of the best Zins we’ve ever produced. This is our first  vintage from a fourth year of drought. Our yield was very low (only 44 cases) and the quality is extraordinary. The concentrated fruit is complex, yet very balanced. The richness of the chocolate-licorice finish lingers on your tongue. This young wine starts off beautifully and will age and develop over time.  We are also releasing our Mentor’s 2014 Old Vine Zin. This intense-drought year wine concentrates flavors of raspberry and cherry with the classic Zin spice finish that only the wisdom of 100 year old vines can create.

For the 6 and 12-bottle Selections, we include our 2011 Zinfandel for you to compare a wet year with the drought-year Zins as well as the 2016 Flamenco Blend, our delightfully crisp white wine that complements every meal. The Condor Club 12-bottle Selection includes two wines from our private reserve: our 2009 Zinfandel (also the 3^rd year of drought) and our 2010 Shiraz (a wet year). You can compare how these aged in the bottle with the younger wines in this Selection.

Our 2017 Spring new releases will still be from the drought years and will bring forward the intensity and low yields the drought years typify. 2014, the third year of drought, is turning out to be an excellent quality wine year for us. Since our Zinfandel yield was so low (only 65 cases), we took the opportunity to get additional dry-farmed grapes from Pat Wirz in Hollister, CA. With this Spring Selection we release this intense, full bodied wine with a chocolate finish for your pleasure. Let it swirl in your mouth so you can fully appreciate the nuances. Along with the Wirz Vineyard Zin, we are releasing our 2016 Rosé blend, once again featuring our Zinfandel, Mourvedré, and Mission grapes in a light, dry strawberry essence perfect for the warm months ahead. For those with the 6 and 12-bottle selections, we include our 2014 Zinfandel for you to compare with the 2014 Wirz Zin and also the 2012 Mentor’s Old Vine Zin that has a delicate, bright flavor found in that first drought year. Added to the Condor Club 12-bottle Selection, from our private reserve, are the Mentor’s Old Vine 2009 Zinfandel (also a 3^rd year of drought) and our 2005 Shiraz (a wet year). You can compare how these both aged in the bottle to the younger 2014 Shiraz and Zins.

We look forward to joining you at your holiday table with this winter wine club selection, featuring the new release of our 2014 Zinfandel and our freshly harvested 2016 olive oil. The 2014 harvest, our third year of drought, produced only 51 cases of Zin. The smaller grapes, with a higher skin to juice ratio, show the promise of a very intense, full-bodied Zinfandel. As typical of our Zins, you can drink it now or lay it down for years to come. We are also thrilled to share with you our certified organic, extra-virgin, dry-farmed olive oil. Use this grassy, peppery, unfiltered oil directly on salads, topping for soups and veggies and, of course, with your favorite bread. Soar with the condors, and order the full Condor Club case, and compare three years of our Zin (one wet; two dry) and our 17-year-old vines with our mentor’s 96-year-old vines along with two wines from our Cellar.

This wine club selection features the release of our 2015 Pedro Ximénez. We are proud to be the only California growers of this unique Andalusian white wine. Its full minerality and citrus overtones create a nice crispness with a completely dry finish. This vintage fills the mouth and tickles the tongue. Our 4th year of drought produced only 21 cases that are primarily set aside for wine club to enjoy. In the 6-bottle selection we’ve created a cornucopia of options to complement every type of meal. As a special treat, for the 12-bottle selection, we are adding two limited production Shiraz from our own cellar.

This wine club selection features two new releases: our 2013 Shiraz and our 2014 Pedro Ximénez (both drought years). The Shiraz is amazingly full-bodied, with blackberry nose and tastes of cacao nibs on the finish. There were only 11 cases produced! We are proud to be the only California growers of the unique Andalusian Pedro Ximénez. Its full minerality and citrus overtones create a nice crispness with a completely dry finish. In the 6-bottle option we add our 2010 Zinfandel which is drinking beautifully after 3 years in the bottle. As a special treat, the 12-bottle case has Old Vine Zin from our Mentor’s 2008 harvest, as well as two Zins and a Shiraz from our own cellar.
