Mission Mountain Winery
|
|
Mission Mountain Winery began as a vineyard in the beautiful Dayton valley at the mouth of Dayton creek where it enters Flathead Lake's west shore. First planted in 1979 by Dr. Thomas Campbell and his son Tom Jr. the vineyard has been and continues to be a grand experiment in finding suitable grape varieties for this northern banana belt of western Montana. many varieties have been exposed to the harsh reality of our short growing season that starts in May and ends in early October. the cold winter , occasionally -20 F eliminates those that are not cold hardy and of those varieties that are cold hardy we have eliminated those that do not ripen in our short season. We have found pinot noir, pinot gris, chardonnay and gewurztraminer to fit our criteria for commercial success in our vineyard site.
Mission Mountain Winery is not alone in the quest to grow grapes in Montana. over the years other pioneers have started vineyards around flathead lake and in the flathead valley and banded together to form the Montana Winegrowers Institute.
