Business Description
"Simply the most outstanding site in The Hudson Valley."
GREAT WINE IS MADE IN THE VINEYARD is an oenological rule first penned by the Latin poet Virgil in 48 BC, and it has not been questioned in over 2000 years. This is why we work hard in our beautiful vineyard to grow only healthy, pure and luscious grapes.
We make only PINOT NOIR, and only great PINOT NOIR. It is 100% PINOT NOIR, Estate Bottled with only grapes from our own vineyard. There are no other grapes allowed in our wine, and we add no artificial colors, flavors, etc. What you get in the bottle is what you see in the vineyard.
In mid-October, when our valley is ablaze with the golds and crimson of Autumn and the evenings are cooled by the Northwest breezes, we set about the harvest.
We hand select our crop at 23.5 Brix, remove the stems, and ferment the must in a cooled, stainless steel tank. Thereafter, we continue the vinification in the finest, traditional Burgundian manner, and age our Pinot Noir in oak barrels from the Troncais region of the Allier Forest.
OAK SUMMIT PINOT NOIR, ESTATE BOTTLED, HUDSON RIVER REGION has amassed over 50 major awards in National and International competitions.
"Costs more than the others, but its well worth the higher price!"
