About Prime Solum

Prime Solum was founded by longtime Napa vintner Bill Hill, who moved to Napa in 1974, earned an MBA from Stanford, and previously built William Hill Winery and Pacific Premiere Vineyards. He opened Prime Solum's tasting room in June 2018 at 1021 Atlas Peak Road, within the city of Napa's Silverado Wine & Arts District; his daughter Elana co-oversees operations today.

The project centers on the 96-acre Broken Rock Vineyard, planted primarily to Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, at 600 to 700 feet elevation on the Atlas Peak bench. Prime Solum produces two lines: the Bordeaux-varietal Prime Solum wines (about 800 cases a year from Broken Rock and select Napa sites) and the cooler-climate Expression 38° wines, sourced from Sonoma and Mendocino.

Prime Solum's tasting room and Broken Rock Vineyard sit on Atlas Peak Road in the city of Napa, not in St. Helena.

✓
Broken Rock VineyardA 96-acre estate vineyard on Atlas Peak Road planted mostly to Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.
✓
Just Below the AVA LineThe vineyard's 600 to 700 foot elevation sits just under the 760-foot threshold for the official Atlas Peak AVA, so its wines are labeled Napa Valley rather than Atlas Peak.
✓
Founder LegacyFounder Bill Hill, previously of William Hill Winery, opened Prime Solum's tasting room in June 2018; daughter Elana Hill now co-leads operations.
"A father-daughter Atlas Peak-area project built on Bill Hill's decades of Napa winemaking, split between structured Bordeaux blends and cooler-climate whites."
