Wines
Blair Fox Cellars is passionate about the production of small lot, hand crafted bottlings of wines from the most premium vineyards in Santa Barbara County. All these wines are vineyard designated and you can truly taste the "terroir" in each glass.
We search for vineyards, which produce grapes with beautiful concentration and intense varietal character. These grapes are hand harvested, hand sorted, fermented in small lots, and basket pressed to ensure the highest possible quality and true expression of the vineyard.
We produce predominately vineyard designated Syrah, estate grown Grenache, Syrah, Petite Sirah, Vermentino, and a small amount of Viognier. The red grapes are lightly crushed, partially de-stemmed and punched down by hand throughout fermentation. After fermentation is complete the wines are basket pressed and transferred to French oak barrels for aging. These red wines are aged for two years in barrel prior to being bottled.
The Viognier and Vermentino grapes are hand sorted and whole-cluster pressed to preserve the fresh, floral, and fruity qualities of these amazing varietals. The juice is then fermented in older French oak barrels and a small percentage of stainless steel while preventing malo-lactic fermentation to promote bright, crisp acidity.

"Spiced plums, chocolate, leafy herbs and underbrush notes all emerge from the 2020 The Ambush Fox Family Vineyard, a medium to full-bodied, ripe, round, sexy blend of 56% Grenache, 25% Syrah, 13% Petite Sirah, and the rest Zinfandel that saw a touch of stems and aging in used 500-liter barrels and puncheons. It has terrific purity, ripe tannins, and outstanding length." ∼ Jeb Dunnuck

"Smoky black fruits, black olive, iron, and peppery herbs, as well as some chocolate notes, all emerge from the 2020 Syrah Tierra Alta Vineyard, a meaty, gamey, almost bloody style of Syrah with a full-bodied, expansive mouthfeel, gorgeous tannins, and a deep, layered, incredible mid-palate. The gamey, exotic, meaty style here might be a love it or hate it type of deal, but count me in the “love it” camp. Based on 100% Syrah that was 83% destemmed and aged 22 months all in used barrels, it's going to drink brilliantly over the coming decade." - Jeb Dunnuck

"The deep ruby/plum-hued 2020 Syrah Fox Family Vineyard comes from a site outside of Los Olivos and was brought up in three and four-year-old barrels. It's a riper, powerful Syrah with ample black fruits, some peppery, herbal, meaty nuances, lots of mid-palate depth, and ripe yet certainly present tannins. As with all of Blair’s wines, it's impeccably made and shines for its seamless texture and length. Give it a few years and enjoy bottles through 2032." ∼ Jeb Dunnuck
