Pinot Noir is a delicate varietal that requires gentle handling at every stage of production. Archery Summit pioneered the elimination of mechanical pumps used to transport must and wine among fermenters, tanks and barrels. Instead, we engineered a unique gravity-flow design, which utilizes five levels.Grapes received at the crush pad on the top level travel downward one floor at a time to our fermentation hall, aging caves and bottling area. Using an elevator built into the cellar 60 feet below the ground, barrels can be lifted for racking and blending and filled without the use of pumps. This process prevents any stress on the wine that might impair its essence.With over 100 distinctive vineyard blocks, Archery Summit’s barrel regimen is purposely varied. We select a variety of coopers, matching the wood source and toast level to the vineyard blocks and vintage conditions, so that the barrels work in harmony with the wine.
