Blair Fox Cellars sources from only the most exceptional vineyards in Santa Barbara County, which can compare to the best vineyards of France and Australia. With meticulous canopy and crop management these vineyards create excellent quality grapes that can be bottled under independent vineyard designations such as: Paradise Road Vineyard; Purisima Mountain Vineyard; Thompson Vineyard; Tierra Alta Vineyard and The Fox Family vineyard.

The Paradise Road Vineyard is the eastern most vineyard in Santa Barbara County. It experiences a much warmer climate than most Santa Barbara County vineyards and is similar to Australia in its iron rich, nutrient deprived soils. The results are tiny berries, small clusters and very concentrated flavors for both the Syrah and the Viognier varietals grown on this wonderful vineyard.

The Purisima Mountain Vineyard is located in the Ballard Canyon area of the Santa Ynez Valley. This vineyard is owned by the Beckmen family and produces some of the best Rhone varietals in Santa Barbara County. Most of this vineyard is grown on hillsides, in a Biodynamic manner, so a great amount of effort and expense is put forth to make sure the fruit is of the absolute highest quality.

Thompson Vineyard is located in Los Alamos off Alisos Canyon Rd. We were fortunate enough to contract fruit for 2007 and will continue to contract fruit for as long as possible. This vineyard produces some of the most beautiful and concentrated fruit I have ever worked with. My grapes come from the old section of the vineyard just down from Ojai and Jaffurs and just above Copain and Tensley. 

Tierra Alta Vineyard is located a few hillsides over from Purisima Mountain in the Ballard Canyon area of the Santa Ynez Valley. The Syrah grapes from this vineyard are sourced from a very steep hillside block of Clone1 planted in shallow calcareous soils. These calcareous soils can be compared to the amazing Limestone soils of the Rhone Valley of France.
 

The Fox Family Vineyard is a small sustainable vineyard in the Santa Ynez Valley planted to Rhone varietals and a small amount of Zinfandel. This vineyard is planted on extreme hillsides with rocky, nutrient poor soils, perfect for quality grape growing. This vineyard is considered our estate vineyard and every vine is meticulously cared for!
