Anthill Farms 2021 Syrah “Peters Vineyard” Sonoma Coast 750ml

This is a cool-climate Syrah that leans toward Northern Rhône elegance rather than California weight. The 2021 Peters Vineyard shows blackberry, olive, cracked pepper, and floral lift, with structure and freshness driving the wine. A serious, site-driven Syrah for buyers who value nuance over power.

Origins & Craftsmanship

Anthill Farms focuses on coastal, organically farmed vineyards and minimal-intervention winemaking. Peters Vineyard, located near Sebastopol on the western Sonoma Coast, is shaped by marine fog, wind, and Goldridge soils, creating a long growing season and preserving natural acidity.

Key details:

• 100% Syrah from Peters Vineyard
• Practicing organic farming
• Native yeast fermentation
• Gentle extraction with a portion of whole cluster for structure and aromatic complexity
• Aged in French oak (modest new oak) to support, not dominate

The 2021 vintage—cooler and more structured—enhances:
👉 pepper, savory notes, and linear acidity, rather than ripe, jammy fruit
