Summit Vineyard starts just outside the Tasting House door and falls away down the hill, 550 feet down to 200. South-facing the whole way. Planted in Jory, the iron-rich volcanic soil that lets roots dig deep and makes the vines work for everything they get.
It's the site we walk most and know best. Sixteen acres, first planted in 1994, farmed block by block because the top of that slope and the bottom of it ripen on different schedules. Whole-cluster fermentation when the vintage asks for it. As little interference as the season allows. The intention is simple enough: whatever ends up in the bottle should belong to this hillside and nowhere else.
