- Archery Summit is a wine producer in the Dundee Hills AVA in Oregon, USA.
- Founded by Gary Andrus in 1993 (his vinous legacy is Pine Ridge and Archery Summit) it focuses heavily on Pinot Noir but also produces varietal Pinot Gris and Chardonnay.
- The winery owns six vineyards across the Dundee Hills. The vines tend to be planted close together ensuring low, highly concentrated yields of small berries. Each vineyard is managed according to its needs and the varietal clones and rootstocks used vary widely. The winery uses organic and some biodynamic practices and the grapes are all hand-picked.
- The winery uses processes best suited for Pinot varieties, mixing traditional and modern techniques. A pioneer of the gravity flow system of winemaking, mechanical pumps have been eschewed.
- Uniquely within Oregon, the maturation cellars are carved from natural caves in the volcanic rock underneath the winery. Visitors can take tours around both the winery and cellars.
