ídola wine co. - 'Rancho Arroyo Grande' - Syrah - CA - 2024

Notes from the Winery/Importer

the vineyard sits at the top of a mountain overlooking Lopez Lake. a few acres of head-trained and dry-farmed Syrah are planted on pure sand and diatomaceous earth. it looks like the moon. for us, this is a dream. the property backs up to thousands of acres of uninhabited Santa Lucia Range. wild sage and lupine grow between the vines while turkeys, coyotes, bears, and mountain lions roam free.

Notes on the Producer

We launched ídola wine co in 2023 with the intention of cultivating awareness in our day to day lives. We treat wine as a meditation - from grape to glass - and believe in its power to communicate the complexities of Nature. Our fruit is processed in a minimal-intervention style that respects the subtleties of each vintage and honestly captures terroir in a glass. Consuming, and now producing, these types of wines encourages us to look beyond the bottle and reflect on where we fit into a bigger picture. There is beauty in knowing that every interpretation will be unique. We invite you to meditate on a glass of ídola, appreciating its unique sensibility each time you open a bottle. At the end of the day, ídola is about connection. With Nature, with others, with yourself. Join our mailing list to be one of the first to take a sip.
