Blend: 89% Syrah, 9% Mourvèdre, 2% Viognier
Vintage production: n/a
Hailed by leading critic Jeb Dunnuck as "Clearly one of the wines of the vintage in Santa Barbara, if not one of the greatest... 2020s in the state", 2020 marks the 9th vintage (hence the name) of Jim’s founding cuvée, the Andremily No. 9 Syrah.
It’s built around of core of Syrah from a line-up of top sites throughout the Central Coast, including White Hawk (Cat Canyon), Larner (Ballard Canyon), Harrison-Clarke (Ballard Canyon), Kimsey, and Alta Mesa (Santa Barbara County), and Slide Hill - Andremily’s first Estate Vineyard, in Edna Valley. It spent 22 months in 65% new French oak.

2019 Argot, Indigo Syrah, Sonoma Mountain 12x75cl
Blend: 100% Syrah
Vintage production: 120 cases
Indigo is a selection from Justin's favourite Syrah terroir, with an emphasis on the Alban 1 clone, given an extended elevage in new, French oak... barriques for maximum impact and richness.
The vineyard is situated at 335m of elevation on a north-facing, gently-rolling hillside on the foothills of Sonoma Mountain. It is composed of a geological upheaval of ashy, moondust-like soils, littered with ancient seabed.
Sonoma Mountain’s ridgetops — demarcating the cool Sonoma Coast AVA, from the more moderate Sonoma Valley AVA — delivers an utterly unique expression of Syrah, distinct from that grown elsewhere in Sonoma County.
The 2019 spent 22 months French oak hogshead barrels (90% new).

Blend: 100% Syrah
Vintage production: TBC
Often described as a Booker flagship, Fracture is one of the world’s great Syrahs. Only the softest Syrah in barrel makes the cut for this dense and... powerful wine. The namesake pays homage to the calcareous soil in the Booker Vineyard, which limestone causes to ‘fracture’. The 2019 was aged for 18months in 70% new and 30% neutral French oak.

Blend: 92% Syrah and 6% Mourvèdre, 2% Viognier

2018 Dragonette, MJM Syrah, Sta. Rita Hills 12x75cl
Blend: 95% Syrah, 4% Grenache and 1% Viognier
Vintage Production: 340 cases
MJM is Dragonette's signature, Syrah-based blend, named in honor of the team's wives and coconspirators in this venture,... Mitchi, Jen and Michelle. Syrah from cooler sites in Santa Barbara makes wines of extraordinary depth, aromatic complexity, elegance and longevity, on par with those from the great growing regions of the world.
The John Sebastiano Vineyard (Sta. Rita Hills) has steep hillsides with sandy loam soils. Buffeted daily by high winds and steeped in fog, this cool site produces wines with remarkable aromatics and flavours of spices, dark fruits, meat and earth. Stolpman in (Ballard Canyon) boasts rolling hills of clay loam, underpinned with limestone. Extreme deficit farming and older vines (some 20+ years) produce low yields of spectacularly dark, intense red fruits and meaty notes. A portion of the
fruit comes from the exclusive, steeply pitched high-density blocks which sit on thick bands of limestone. Larner (Ballard Canyon) has thin sandy soils on rolling hills. 20-year-old vines yield dark, rich, meaty Syrah fruit with blueberry fruits and game. The fruit from nearby Kimsey (Ballard Canyon) is dark with rich flavors of blueberries and blackberries seasoned with spices.
