Ghost Hill
Excellent wine, starts in a remarkable vineyard. The resplendent, rolling hills of the farm are Willakenzie soils, with marine sediment bedrock.
These soils are ideal for the propagation of the difficult-to-grow, but very rewarding, Pino Noir grape.
Ghost Hill is one of the wineries that summons the past.
Mike & Drenda Bayliss of Ghost Hill, are people farming grapes, whose affinity with the land has its value expressed in nature.
Mike says, "My grandfather built this old house, on these acres, in 1906. And we intend to keep them in the family. We keep making wine to keep the land".
Here lies a source of continuity, that allows Oregon to continue setting precedents, and nurturing traditions, unique to this part of the wine world.
...
The ghost, of Ghost Hill, once had a body and a horse, until thieves relieved him of them. As well as a bag of gold, from out of a local stream. The ghost, roams the hills, above the property, looking for the stolen loot.
Here's the story.
...
In the 1850s, prospectors discovered gold in the southern region of the Oregon Territory. From the moment gold was struck, the Oregon Territory, was inundated with miners seeking their fortune. During this time, a gold prospector, whose identity has been lost to history, was traveling from the goldfields to Portland to sell his gold, and make his fortune.
He made the fateful decision to stop for the night and set up camp at the top of what is currently the Bayliss farm, the place we now know, as Ghost Hill.
At the time, the hill, as well as most of the surrounding land, was heavily wooded, making it an ideal place to camp in peace.
During the night, someone snuck into his camp, to rob him of his gold. The miner was killed, his horse mortally injured, and his hard-earned pouch of gold disappeared into the night. To this day, the miner is said to wander the hill looking for his stolen gold, and to right the wrongs that befell him that night.
...
Mike and Drenda live in the original farmhouse built in 1906 by Daniel and Samuel Bayliss. Mike, Drenda, their son Michael, their daughter Bernadette and son-in-law, Cameron Bower, are working together to make the vineyard and Ghost Hill Cellars a success and preserve the farm for future generations.
