t Rhys Vineyards we aspire to make great wines from unique and expressive vineyards. This pursuit has lead us to select five different sites in the Santa Cruz Mountains for growing Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Syrah. Our overriding belief that unique vineyard expression is the key to truly great wine leads us to an approach that includes:
* A relentless, spare-no-expense, focus on producing the best possible fruit in the vineyard
* Carefully selected cool weather sites that offer interesting and expressive soil character,Our winemaking is focused on accomplishing the following goals:

* Pure, silky concentration that can only be achieved through low yields
* Beautiful balance with no component revealing itself separate from the whole
* Fruit that tastes fresh-picked and perfectly ripe, not jammy
* Capturing complex aromatics
* Ability to age and improve in the bottle. Nothing compares to the aromatic beauty of aged wine!
* Thrilling complexity and beguiling interest that never leaves you bored
* Wines with a strong sense of somewhereness (rather than someoneness)
Consistent with our organic/biodynamic approach to viticulture, we believe that hands-off winemaking provides for enhanced vineyard expression and commmnd Natural winemaking with minimal interventioThese core tenets help us produce ageworthy wines that emphasize vineyard expression, balance, fresh fruit, and concentration.
