SOIL SERIES TRIO

The Willamette Valley has quite the soil story to tell! Whether it's volcanic eruptions, oceanic deposits, strong winds, or glacial floods - each soil has its sub-plot. At roughly 120 miles long and 40 miles wide the beautiful Willamette Valley offers a complex mélange of these distinctive soils that are exposed in the eroding hillsides and planted to grapevines. Each grapevine is influenced by the soil it is planted on, impacting the development of the grapes and contributing to the stylistic nuances of the wine’s aromas and flavors. To highlight this incredible connection between earth and vine, each vintage features one of the three major soils found in the Willamette Valley, letting this incredible connection speak through what we call the Soil Series!
