John Sebastiano Vineyard is a new hillside planting (2007) of Pinot Noir on the Eastern edge of the Santa Rita Hills appellation. The vineyard takes its name from the two owners, John and Sebastiano. Foxen has a monopoly on three blocks; 2.3 acres of clone 2A, 2.7 acres of Dijon 667, and 3.5 acres of Dijon 115. 2010 was our first harvest.

Updating to add that Syrah and Grenache are grown at this site. For example, the 2019 Sans Soufre Ajouté from Ojai is designated John Sebastiano Vineyard. See:https://www.ojaivineyard.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/19SSA-OneSheet.pdf
