We began planting in 1999 and now have 25,000 vines over 20 acres. There are 11,000 Pinot Noir, 9,000 Chardonnay, 3,000 Pinot Gris and 2,000 Gamay. The current yield, depending on the vintage, is about 3500 cases. All the wines are made using grapes only from our vineyards. In September the entire vineyard is netted against birds, and an electric fence surrounds the perimeter to keep out the raccoons. After harvest 2-3 canes are laid down on a low wire and dirt is hilled up on them for the winter to ensure a crop. With trial and error we have invented several tractor attachments to make this process as efficient as possible, including de-hilling in the spring. Harvesting begins as the weather dictates, anywhere from mid-September into October. All the processing is done on site in the barns across the road. The grapes are hand picked and sorted, then crushed and de-stemmed (by machine not feet). Pinot Gris and Chardonnay are left on their skins for 24 hours then pressed out, the Gris goes into stainless steel tanks and Chardonnay is barrel fermented using various ages of wood.

You take a winding walking path from the parking lot surrounded by wild flowers and trees. The tasting room is at the end in an old wood structure that overlooks the vines. If you are lucky a cat or dog will greet you.
