Ranchita Pura Vida 2026 Harvest
Syrah – 2 tons, $2.00lb/$4,000 ton
Cabernet Sauvignon – 1.5 tons, $1.50lb/$3,000 ton
We are taking orders for the 2026 harvest of our prized Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. Hand cultivated and carefully tended near the Templeton Gap District.
Our vineyard manager is Daniel Martinez who recently left Alta Colina Vineyards to join Gibbs Vineyards of G2 who is arguably the very best, ultra-premium vineyard in the Paso Robles Willow Creek AVA with their grapes going to Saxum, Jacob Toft, Turtle Rock to name a few. Daniel is a wonderful farmer and his focus is on quality fruit, hand farmed with as much organic practices as possible. We are not certified organic, but do our best to follow best farming practices in our boutique vineyard of one acre.
The vines are certified Paulson 1103. Soil is 30% sand, 30% loam and 40% clay. Elevation is 274.37m / 900’. Day time temperatures 80’s to 100’s and night time temperatures in the 40’s-50’s. The Cabernet Sauvignon Vines were planted in 2016 and the Syrah 2017 with additional vines planted in 2023.
Vine spacing for the Cabernet Sauvignon 6’ and the Syrah was 6’ but went to 3' in 2023 when we added vines.
Pricing includes handpicked harvesting, bins are available or can be provided by the buyer. We work with boutique wineries and home winemakers of all sizes. We have a scale to measure weight onsite at harvest.
Harvest is typically mid September for the Syrah and late October for the Cabernet Sauvignon. We welcome onsite visits and have 2023 Cabernet in the bottle and have entered it in the Mid State Fair and the Orange County Fair winemaking contests.
2024 and 2025 harvests are available for barrel tasting in Arroyo Grande. Grapes previously sourced by Crazywoman Cellars.
