19 Rows Syrah

Having spent many years traveling to Tuscany, Italy to sculpt in marble, wine just naturally became a part of the culinary part of our lives. We also became aware that European wines are traditionally lower in alcohol, providing a smoother experience. We liked that and remembered it when later producing our own wine.

​

With a large area at the back of the property, we had seriously considered putting in a tennis court when a friend humorously suggested that it would be a very expensive method of weed control! That got our attention and on a trip to Sonoma, we came upon the idea of trying our hand at a boutique vineyard. After doing research on what would thrive in the summer heat of the valley floor, we decided upon a red wine of the Syrah varietal. Thus was born 19 Rows Syrah at Wexler Encino Estate Vineyard.
