We are located on Carpenter Hill in Medford at the crest of the slope on a 100 acre plot of land. We've so far planted 10 AC to grapes on the south facing portion adjacent to Carpenter Hill, half in 2006, half in 2007. About 5 AC remain to be planted in this block before we move on to other slopes on the property.
The current 10 AC site is planted in Darrow silty clay loam at an elevation of between 1560-1630 feet. Soil depth varies between 20-40", with a slope incline from 1 to 10% at the crest of Carpenter Hill.
