Blackwood Wines Helping Island Foxes

Protecting Channel Island foxes is a community effort. 

In the wake of the historic Santa Rosa Island wildfire, a local winery has stepped in to help island foxes.

Blackwood Wines is a small winery run by husband and wife duo, Patrick and Emma. Only making a couple of barrels per year, they say "our goal is to create and share our favorite styles of wines with our favorite people: friends and family."

 

Blackwood Wines and Bolt To Wines Island Fox Chardonnay

Their Island Fox Chardonnay is a collaboration with their friends at Bolt To Wines! The chardonnay is a blend of two vineyard sites in the Santa Rita Hills, which "come together beautifully to remind one of a French chardonnay."

Patrick & Emma say: "To help support conservation, education and recovery efforts after the fire, all profits from the sales of our 2024 Collaboration Chardonnay through the end of June will be donated to the "Island Fox - Fire Fund" managed by the Friends of the Island Fox."
