Viticulture

Pinot Noir grapes harvested in late Septemer through October. Grapes are primarily Dijon clones for a fruit-forward style, with a small blend of Pommard to uphold the tradition and earth of Pinot Noir.

Terroir

The area is 40 Million years old, formed from oceanic volcanic uprisings followed by deposits of lava from the Cascade Mountain volcanic eruptions known as 'basalt tufts'.

Vineyard

Coleman Vineyard is located in the McMinnville foothills of Yamhill County in the Willamette Valley. The vineyard is close to the Van Duzer corridor, an opening through the Coast Range mountains to the Oregon coast, providing hot summer days with afternoon winds cooling the evening temperatures significantly. We believe this temperature variation, along with the volcanic soils contributes to the phenolic characteristics and brightness of the wine, providing a structure for aging and significant dark cherry and spice flavors with intense color.
