In 1999, the Fäsi Estate set out to create a Syrah Vineyard in the San Joaquin Valley unlike any other in the region. The 42 acre "Vineyard 2000" (V2K) is the culmination of this idea and is built around one very simple, yet unique concept: Create an organically certified vineyard that marries the long traditions of wine grape growing with various precise and real-time monitoring sensors that today's technology allows. Since the early stages of development, the Fäsi Estate welcomed and engaged the advice of the Viticulture Department of Fresno State University and the good family friend, Prof. Cesare Fabietti. Together they applied the most modern technologies available for both the development and the organic cultivation practices of the vineyard.

The Syrah grapes that are grown right along the banks of the San Joaquin River are as unique as the vineyard's approach to viticulture. The prime soils and very specific microclimate contribute to the grape's unique character. Much like the world-famous Napa Valley grapes, the maturing grapes of V2K are strongly influenced by the cooler night temperatures that are prominent in this very unique climatic area of Madera County along the San Joaquin River in the Central Valley.
