“Oregon’s speciality is Pinot Noir, a delicate and temperamental grape considered by many to make the most sensual red wine in the world.” – Karen MacNeil, The Wine Bible
Like Burgundy in France, the Willamette Valley in Oregon is located on the 45th parallel. Both areas experience approximately the same number of degree days and an average rainfall of around 40 inches a year. Unlike Burgundy, however, Oregon receives almost all of its precipitation during the winter. This reduces the disease pressure Oregon growers face and also extends the growing season.
The property neighbors Domaine Serene 'Jerusalem Hill Vineyard ($102 per bottle) and Drew Bledsoe’s newly acquired Hopewell Vineyard. Other super premium producers such as Elton Vineyard abound nearby. The vineyard features a mixture of well draining Woodburn sedimentary soil (deposited during the Missoula Floods some 13,000 to 15,000 years ago) and volcanic Jory Clay soils. Jory Clay is much sought after for Pinot Noir.
"Pinot Noir from Jory soils are renowned for their bright red cherry and red-fruit flavour profile, with a high acidity and softer tannins.
The vines are 100% 114 Clone planted in the year 2000.
