Larner Vineyard is a 34-acre family owned vineyard located in the Santa Ynez Valley along Ballard Canyon. The vineyard rolls down a south facing slope and is planted in mostly sandy soils. Of the 34 acres planted in grapes, there are 22 acres of syrah, six acres of Grenache, two acres of Mourvedre, and two and a half of Viognier plus one and a half acres of Malvasia Bianca.

Since 2001, Larner Vineyard has established itself as a premium vineyard site selling grapes to acclaimed wineries throughout Santa Barbara County and has gained notoriety from leading wine critics. UC Davis graduate Michael Larner runs the vineyard with his family and maintains a reputation for meticulous farming practices and top quality fruit.
*2009 marks the first vintage wine release for the new Larner Winery and Vineyard brand. Winemaker Michael Larner produces limited production, ultra-premium wines from Larner Vineyard grapes.

Even our slithering are welcome at a farmed vineyard to help control rodents. This gophersnake seems to have enjoyed a meal or two out here among the vines. Coupled with boxes peppered throughout the property hopefully we can keep the varmints in check. Gopher control is always a bit ironic for the Larner Family since one of the founders was the on the movie. Always thinking of you Stevan Larner, DP.

Last couple of days have had clouds and . Vines are indulging in the mild warmth and the sky’s putting on quite the of a show. Flowering not too far off, it’s all about good canopy growth and shoot thinning (the process of removing excess vegetative shoots to open up the canopy for more airflow and less sun blocking of grapes).

Golden hour, watching over the sunrise in our block named , the sheep are in their last week of their visit. Budbreak has stared in the upper elevation blocks, so our focus is preserving all the green growing tissue.

Okay, we have questions… what did the sheep do last night? What kind of party did they throw? They certainly didn’t clean up after themselves. Looks like we are going to have to make another run.

The rarity of a black sheep is real — often considered a stand out, we see it as essential individuality and the tiny hero of our new crew. More than 100 sheep (and two trusty guard dogs) returned to the estate this week, marking the third year of gracing Larner vineyard with these animals’ ability to naturally w**d and maintain overall soil health. Plus, it’s such a joy to be greeted by these faces each and every day!

Our cutest natural lawnmowers and fertilizers started in our Paloma Syrah block, which is the first time we’ve grazed this block. These cuties will munch throughout the vineyard all the way to bud break in late March, while we continue to feel the sense of pride in the organic cap we all wear here at Larner.

What more can we say about our 2024 Rosé? Those who know the signature fresh, bright and vibrant red fruits in this coveted SGM blend can expect the same from this exceptional vintage. And for those who don’t, come give it a try!

Most club members can expect to see this in their February club shipment, but if not, feel free to add it on to this month’s allocation. Email [email protected] for more info!
