SolSummit, a woman-owned company in Ann Arbor, has launched a certified-sustainable and certified-green premium and portable canned wine product said to be the first of its kind in the local market.
After three years of development, SolSummit currently is sold at more than in 70 Michigan retail outlets. The product is available in a rosé, red wine blend, and Sauvignon Blanc.
Partnering with a fourth-generation family vineyard in Clarksburg, Calif., SolSummit is developed from grape to glass with the same producer, promising consistency and quality in what the consumer receives; one that can accompany people on their travels or athletic endeavors.
Emily Dabish Yahkind is the founder and “chief wine lady” at SolSummit. She noticed that canned wines frequently include a “significant amount” of additives and are less than desirable to consumers who want a natural product.
SolSummit states that it is committed to sustainable business practices, supporting family vineyards, and seeking out wines that are minimal-intervention and derived from organic farms.
The partner vineyard in Clarksburg sits between the Mayacama Mountains and Sierra Nevadas. The Sacramento River’s fresh melted snow mass nurtures the viticultural environment; 40 miles from the Napa Valley.
According to Dabish Yahkind, SolSummit is “designed as a boutique brand where the natural features of the vineyard mirror the ethos of the brand.”
The clean monochromatic packaging is designed to appeal to a variety of buyers across multiple commercial outlets.
