Grape Sources
The Northwest U.S. is gaining international recognition for the excellence of its soil and climate for growing many of the world’s greatest wine grapes. In these brief videos, two vintners who grow top-quality fruit for us explain why our region’s reputation for winemaking excellence continues to grow.
Umpqua Valley AVA
Over 150 soil types are derived from a mix of metamorphic, sedimentary and volcanic rock. The valley floor levels have mostly deep alluvial or heavy clay materials, while the hillsides and bench locations have mixed alluvial, silt or clay structures – all typically excellent for wine growing.
Rattlesnake Hills AVA
Fine, shallow silt loam soils left over from the ice age are the norm here. Sandier soils surround the AVA, but the silt loam on top of the rock and flood formations here provide the perfect soil structure for quality grapes.
Chehalem Mountains AVA
This AVA combines uplifted sedimentary seabeds, lava flows, and wind-blown silt, resulting in some of the most diverse soils in wine country.
Willamette Valley AVA
All three important hillside soil types are represented: basaltic, ocean sedimentary and loess (blown lake bed sediment), the predominant soil on the northern face of the Chehalem Mountains. Within the almost 70,000 acres of this AVA are over 1,600 acres of grapes, grown in over 100 vineyards, and 31 wineries.
