Updated Vineyard Maps
Posted: Mar 18, 2020
Beckmen Vineyards consists of two separate vineyards with dramatically different soils and climates. We have created two maps of each of our vineyards to help our customers better understand how our wines were crafted. One version of the maps shows the various plantings of varietal clones and rootstocks, the other version lists the final wine the grapes are sourced for. Vineyards are constantly evolving, as individual grapevines or entire blocks are replanted to different varietals, clones, or rootstocks; these maps were just updated in February 2020.
Establishing Beckmen Vineyards
Eager to return to his farming roots, and convinced of the Santa Ynez Valley’s vast potential to produce world-class wines, Tom Beckmen began searching for promising vineyard property in the early ‘90s. He found what he was looking for on a 40-acre parcel of land with an existing small winery. There, he established Beckmen Vineyards in 1994.
Tom and his youngest son Steve began working together to revitalize the site. Convinced that the vineyard had been planted incorrectly, they painstakingly removed the original 16 acres of vines and replanted the vineyard with 24 acres of carefully selected varietals, clones, and rootstocks, primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Building Purisima Mountain
Committed to building a world-class estate-vineyard program, the Beckmens also purchased a spectacular, unplanted 365-acre Santa Ynez Valley ranch in 1996. Naming it Purisima Mountain Vineyard (PMV) Tom and Steve began a meticulous planting process designed to maintain the natural diversity of the site. With an ideal climate and rare limestone subsoils similar to those found in Côte Rôtie and Châteauneuf du Pape, the vineyard has proven perfect for producing a range of stunning Rhône varietals, especially Syrah and Grenache. PMV is also the home of Beckmen’s white wine portfolio, consisting of Rosé, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Viognier, and Grenache Blanc.

Under the care and guidance of Tom and Steve, PMV has earned acclaim as one of California’s great Rhône-varietal vineyards. Adding to its reputation as one of the most meticulously cultivated winegrowing sites in all of Santa Barbara County, the vineyard has been farmed 100% biodynamically since 2006 and was certified Demeter biodynamic in 2009.
Reflecting a passion for quality and a belief in the natural character of the land, the adoption of biodynamic farming practices has only reinforced Steve’s vineyard-focused style of winemaking. Believing that the wine in the bottle begins in the soil, Steve and the winemaking team craft wines that capture the unique terroir of Purisima Mountain.
