Further details
York Creek Petite Sirah
In 1968, Fritz Maytag purchased the Herbert Hummel ranch on Spring Mountain. It’s climate is cooler than that of the valley below. Most of the land is forested and wild above York Creek. There are several Petite Sirah blocks on the ranch. Planted in the early years of the last century, the Devil’s Hill vines are the oldest. In 1971, Ridge used their fruit to make its first York Creek Petite Sirah. Fritz and Paul Draper, friends at Stanford, had set up a winery in Chile. When Paul returned to California, joining Ridge as winemaker in August of 1969, Fritz decided to send Paul grapes from his vines. By 1980 Ridge was also taking the grapes from Dynamite Hill planted in 1973 with cuttings from Devil’s Hill. Dynamite Hill is the location of the 2005 harvest.
