  • A GIS Analysis of the Viticultural Potential in the Rogue Valley of Oregon
    Modeling Viticultural Landscapes: A GIS Analysis of the Viticultural Potential in the Rogue Valley of Oregon La modélisation des paysages viticoles : Une analyse SIG du potentiel de la viticulture dans la Rogue Valley d'Oregon Gregory V. Jones1, Andrew A. Duff, and Joey W. Myers 1Department of Geography, Southern Oregon University 1250 Siskiyou Blvd Ashland, Oregon 97520, U.S.A. [email protected] Key Words: grapes, wine, viticulture, terroir, Oregon SUMMARY Terroir is a holistic concept that relates to both environmental and cultural factors that together influence the grape growing to wine production continuum. The physical factors that influence the process include matching a given grape variety to its ideal climate along with optimum site characteristics of elevation, slope, aspect, and soil. While some regions have had 100s and even 1000s of years to define, develop, and understand their best terroir, newer regions typically face a trial and error stage of finding the best variety and terroir match. This research facilitates the process by modeling the climate and landscape in a relatively young grape growing region in Oregon, the Rogue Valley. The result is an inventory of land suitability that provides both existing and new growers greater insight into the best terroirs of the region. INTRODUCTION Assessing a site’s physical characteristics is arguably the single most important process that any potential grape grower will encounter when starting out (Jones and Hellman, 2003). Combined with matching the site to a grape variety, this decision will ultimately affect the vineyard’s yield, the quality of the wine produced, and the vineyard’s long-term profitability (Wolf, 1997).

  • Umpqua Valley Wine History
    Umpqua Valley Location: Umpqua Valley AVA sits between the Coast Range to the west and the Cascade Range to the east, with the Willamette Valley AVA to the north and the Rogue Valley AVA to the south. Named for the legendary fishing river that runs nearby, the appellation stretches 65 miles from north to south, and is 25 miles from east to west. Wine history: The Umpqua Valley's winegrowing history dates back to the 1880s when German immigrants who had worked for the Beringer Bros., the oldest continuously operating vineyard in Napa, planted the first wine grape vineyard in the Valley. Post-prohibition, Richard Sommer established Hillcrest Vineyards near Roseburg in 1961. He was the first to plan Pinot noir in Oregon despite being told by his California (Davis) cohorts that it was impossible to successfully grow wine grapes in Oregon. Obviously, they were wrong. Just eight years later, in 1969, Paul Bjelland of Bjelland Vineyards founded the Oregon Winegrowers Association in the Umpqua Valley. During the 1970s new wineries opened, including Henry Estate Winery, whose winemaker Scott Henry developed a now world-famous trellis system, which increases grape yield, among other benefits. The Umpqua Valley appellation continues to evolve as new winemakers discover the area, bringing with them a passion for innovation and world- class wine. The Umpqua Valley appellation became official in 1984. Climate: One of Oregon's more diverse climates, the Umpqua Valley can successfully grow both cool and warm varieties. It's comprised of three distinct climatic sub-zones: 1) The Northern area around the town of Elkton enjoys a cool, marine-influenced climate.

  • 2015 Division-Villages “Béton”
    2015 Division-Villages “Béton” Oregon AVA Quady North Vineyard, Serra Vineyard, Johan Vineyard, Methven Family Vineyard, Rebecca’s Vineyard Throughout the state of Oregon, the 2015 vintage was very hot and dry, especially notable for the northern half of the state. In a hot year like 2015, we worked very hard with the vineyards to contain vigor and slow down maturity to develop com- plex phenolic maturity without taking on too much sugar and a corresponding de- crease in natural acidity. This was our third year working with Quady North Vineyard (EV and Mae’s blocks) in the Applegate Valley AVA in southern Oregon for the main component of Loire clones of Cabernet Franc (50% of the blend). Herb Quady has become one, if not, the best growers in the region who is doing all the right things with the fantastic granite based terroir. The Quady site in the Applegate Valley AVA sits in the hills above the Applegate river and while much warmer than the Willamette Valley, usually, the Quady site, at a high elevation, is usually cooler and wetter than the Rogue Valley AVA to the east. A new portion to the Béton (5% of the blend) comes from the old Côt (AKA Malbec) vines at Serra Vine- yard in the Applegate, which was co-fermented with a small quantity of old vine Cab Franc from the Sere- nade Vineyard (10% of the total blend), where Herb Quady sourced some of the cuttings for the Quady North Vineyard. The Gamay compnent (25% of the blend) comes from mostly from Rebecca’s Vineyard, planted in 1987, which located in the northern Umpqua, has been a quiet beacon of the Gamay grapes’ capabilities outside of the Willamette Valley and from Methven Family Vineyards in the Eola-Amity Hills AVA.

  • Pacific Northwest STAFF TRAINING GUIDE
    Pacific Northwest STAFF TRAINING GUIDE As the United States’ second and fourth largest wine producers, respectively, Washington State and Oregon represent two of the New World’s most dynamic winegrowing areas. The Cascade Mountains provide a diversity of climates, allowing for abundant varieties and styles. While Oregon has made its mark with Pinot Noir, and Washington with Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah, both states offer much to explore beyond their signature grapes. 1 History Washington and Oregon’s winegrowing histories begin in the early to mid-19th century, decades before either achieved statehood. In Washington, the first grapes were planted in 1825 by the Hudson’s Bay Company at Fort Vancouver, while Henderson Luelling brought cuttings from Iowa along his journey west on the Oregon Trail in 1847. The Pacific Northwest’s first winery followed soon after, in 1854, when Peter Britt founded Valley View in Southern Oregon. In that same year, hybrid grape varieties arrived in Washington’s Puget Sound. The Walla Walla Valley saw its first vines in 1860. By the early 1900s, Washington and Oregon had burgeoning wine industries, but their growth was stifled by Prohibition. Both rebounded shortly after Prohibition’s repeal, and by 1938, there were 42 wineries in Washington. The 1950s and ’60s were decades of great modernization for both states. American Wine Growers, which would later be renamed Chateau Ste. Michelle and become Washington’s largest winery, was founded in 1954. Here, legendary winemaker André Tchelistcheff championed the planting of vinifera grapes in Eastern Washington. In Oregon’s Umpqua Valley, Richard Sommer founded HillCrest Vineyard in 1961, where he would plant the state’s first Pinot Noir and Riesling vines.
