Reeves Ranch Vineyard


In 1994 Dan and Meghan Reeves bought a forty acre property set high in the Santa Ynez Valley foothills overlooking the town of Los Olivos. It was planted with vineyards from 1989 which we soon grafted over to syrah with clones from Australia and France. Starting in 1998 we sold the grapes to winemakers such as Dan Gehrs, Kris Curran and Joey Tensley.

Each year we would also make some wine for family and friends who would help with crushing and bottling. Beginning with the 2008 vintage we got our license and made the wine at Terravant Wine Co.

The three terraced vineyards range from 1000' to 1200' in elevation, providing unique growing conditions that give the grapes a distinctive flavor not found in other areas of the Santa Ynez Valley. Our vines typically yield under two tons per acre, from which we produce 400 cases of wine each year.
