A Sustainable Family Farm

Scopus Vineyard

We are a family-run farm based in Glen Ellen’s Valley of the Moon. We farm our 40-acres of Chardonnay grapes, Italian blend olives, and other fruits with great respect for the land, for our customers and all who work with us. We aim to produce exceptional fruit and products, guided by sustainability, industry best practices and a genuine love for our special piece of land.

Olive
Oil

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Our Italian blend of Frantoio, Leccino, and Pedolino olives creates a fresh, peppery and robust extra virgin olive oil, great on salads, for dipping and other uses. We harvest and cold press immediately, creating a fresh oil rich in healthy phenols. Our oil received the highest extra virgin rating and is certified extra virgin. Available seasonally at select boutiques. Also available wholesale in un-bottled bulk quantities and by the case.

The Farm

Connection with nature

We are blessed to be located in one of California’s premier growing regions, with fertile soil and a beneficial microclimate. We are also in an area of rich California history. Our farm, along with the surrounding hills, once served as grazing land for Berkeley Farms creamery, established in 1910. We are near the traditional boundary of the Native Californian Coast Miwok, Southern Promo and Southern Wappo territories. We recognize their stewardship of the land. Down the road just a few miles, Jack London established his beloved farm and abode over a hundred years ago, writing books and stories creekside. We hope you enjoy the products from our farm.

Vineyard

Family-owned vineyard

Located at the top of Sonoma Mountain in a region known for producing superb vintages, Scopus Vineyard has been in production for almost 20 years. The vineyard’s gently sloping hills and Goulding cobbly clay loam soil sit just above the fog line, offering plenty of sunshine and cool evening temperatures, perfect conditions for Chardonnay.
