Resurgent Vineyard is uniquely sited on the 1/4 mile wide valley bottom of the South Fork of the Walla Walla River.  Bracketed by steep slopes rising more than 800 feet on either side, the vineyard is full of cobblestones weathered by eons of river flows and fractured basalt that has sloughed off the surrounding hillsides.  The soil composition closely resembles that found in the Rocks District of Milton Freewater, but Resurgent sits almost 600 feet higher in elevation than most of the vineyard sites in the “Rocks.”
