Cep is the second label from Sonoma’s Peay Vineyards. Cep means vine stock in French. Cep Syrah is made from barrels of wine that do not make it into one of the Peay Vineyards wines. All the blending for the Peay cuvées is done blind– without knowing the amount each potential wine will make– so they choose the wine that best expresses the cuvée and the vintage. After all the wines for the vintage are put together, winemaker Vanessa Wong will use extra barrels to be released as Cep. They are delicious and at half the price of Peay!
