About Our Grapes
Krisyn Vineyards was planted in the
spring of 2004 by Mesa Vineyard Management. Located in
the El Pomar District, the southwest facing slopes are
cooled by the Templeton Gap breezes, so we have the
advantages of warm days with cooler afternoons and
evenings. The soils are Linne Calado which features
limestone sub soils that appear at the surface on
hilltops such as ours.
We specialize in
growing premium Petite Sirah and Merlot. Our seven
acres of Merlot are clone 181 which is highly regarded
for quality. Our Merlot is planted on 1103P rootstock.
Four and a half acres of Petite Sirah is planted on
1103P rootstock and the remaining two and a half acres
is planted on 110R rootstock.
The vineyards
have been cared for and managed by Mesa Vineyard
Management. For further information or for inquiries
