THE CROWN

FARMED BY LARRY SAARLOOS


We Live in order to : Honor those that have come before us. + Prepare the way for those yet to come.
The wines we release this year are the last my father farmed from plow to harvest.
Some could say the last remnants of his work.
I disagree.
The work continues.
I was prepared.
But I was not ready.
Nor do I think I ever would be.

But I was prepared.
His boys have grown in his absence.
Not because he was holding us back,
But because we needed to.
We were prepared.

But if you think I was going to miss an opportunity to honor my father with this year’s releases you are mistaken.
Each bottle has a subtle nod to my father.
Each bottle is an opportunity to say his name and keep his legend alive.
I say legend and not legacy because that rests in his sons and in his grandchildren.

In a simple statement.

We live in order to Honor those that have come before us and to prepare the way for those yet to come.

That is who we are.
That is what we do.

Most are already Sold Out.
But Family will always be taken care of.

This wine is one of 3 Syrah’s we have released this year. It all comes from the same vineyard and was all picked on the same day. Furthermore, these vines are genetically identical. The vines are Clones of each other. Cuttings taken and replicated over and over. Genetically they are all one vine just planted in slightly different locations. These 3 wines are from 3 different hillsides.


The EMPTY SADDLE is from the FAT MAN Terrace the furthest and steepest of the hillsides comprising only 16 rows.
THE CROWN is taken from the FatMan terrace located lightly north comprising 24 rows cascading along the hillside.
And Finally, the BOOTS TO FILL is coming from the High Hill the furthest most hillside at the entrance of Windmill Ranch and Vineyard.


We take it upon ourselves in our family to follow our family creed :

We live in order to: Honor those that have come before us + to prepare the way for those yet to come.
