Our Tiers

Tier 1

Summit

These blocks consistently produce the finest expression of each variety, ripening beautifully. They feature multiple elevations, including some of the highest north–south oriented slopes in our vineyards. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc, and Petit Verdot thrive in the rockier clay soils, while Malbec is planted on the sandiest sites—producing larger, juicier berries with vibrant fruit character. 

​

Varieties: Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Petit Verdot, Sauvignon Blanc 

Tier 3

Crest

These blocks perform incredibly well. Plantings include primarily Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. Cabernet and Cabernet Franc thrive on sandy soils, producing elegant tannins, while Merlot benefits from higher-elevation clay soils that enhance structure and depth. 

​

Varieties: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot 

Tier 5

Echo

Planted on well-drained clay and sandy soils, these Cabernet Sauvignon blocks benefit from strong site fundamentals that support quality fruit development. The vineyard shows excellent potential for producing expressive, high-quality Cabernet Sauvignon as the site continues to mature.

These blocks are high performing: yields are reliably strong, and the fruit quality is consistently outstanding. The vines benefit from rocky clay soils and well-elevated, north–south oriented slopes that enhance canopy balance and ripening consistency.
