  • 2019 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
    2019 WILLAMETTE VALLEY PINOT NOIR AVERÆN was born out of our love for cool climate Pinot Noir. Oregon’s Willamette Valley offers an ideal growing climate, where strong winds blow from the nearby Pacific Ocean, and the mix of ancient volcanic soils and marine sediments from a prehistoric ocean floor lend intense minerality and complexity to the Pinot Noir grapes grown on them. Simple sustainable farming, hands-off winemaking and a passion for Pinot Noir dictate our mission. Our vineyards span the Willamette’s sub-AVAs, enabling us to create a wine that is a true representation of the Valley as a whole – playing off each site’s specific personality and complementary nature to create a harmonious blend.

  • How Well Do American Viticultural Areas Correspond with the Soil Classes in Oregon's Northern Willamette Valley? a Question for the Wine Industry
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Douglas T. Wood for the degree of Master of Science in Geography presented on March 17, 2014. Title: How Well Do American Viticultural Areas Correspond with the Soil Classes in Oregon's Northern Willamette Valley? A Question for the Wine Industry Abstract approved: _____________________________________________ Laurence C. Becker The specific geography of individual wine growing regions has long been understood to be a significant factor in predicting both a region’s success in producing high quality grapes, and the resulting demand for wines produced from that region’s fruit. In the American wine industry, American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) are increasingly being used to designate a uniqueness and specificity of place. This process is often predicated on the argument that these areas represent a certain degree of physiographic uniformity or homogeneity. This is particularly the case with regard to the phenomenon of sub-AVAs, wherein smaller areas within large, spatially heterogeneous AVAs seek to differentiate themselves based on the physiographic features that are purportedly unique to those smaller subregions. In many cases, there is a strong correlation between soil classes and AVA boundaries, whereas in other cases the correlation is not as strong. This suggests that there are factors other than physiographic homogeneity contributing to the designation of these sub-AVAs. This study employs GIS and spatial analysis to examine and potentially correlate the soil classes of Oregon’s northern Willamette Valley with the sub-AVAs in that area. In doing so, this study presents maps and statistical results in order to provide a quantitative summary of the geographic context of vineyards in this region with respect to both the soil classes present and the federally designated AVA boundaries in which they are located.

  • AAWE Working Paper No. 151 – Economics
    AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF WINE ECONOMISTS AAWE WORKING PAPER No. 151 Economics Classification and Re-Classification: Oregon’s Willamette Valley AVA and its New Sub-AVAs Omer Gokcekus and Clare M. Finnegan Feb 2014 www.wine-economics.org ISSN 2166-9112 Classification and re-classification: Oregon’s Willamette Valley AVA and its new sub-AVAs * Omer Gokcekus a and Clare M. Finnegan a Abstract: The creation of new, sub-AVAs within Oregon’s Willamette Valley AVA may indicate a desire on the part of well-established wineries to “split” or separate their social grouping from those with lesser qualifications. Once their social cluster has been differentiated, we theorize that these wineries would be able to capitalize on their newly developed distinctiveness and collect a larger regional reputation premium. Based on 2,221 Wine Spectator rated pinot noir wines between 1984 and 2008, regression analyses demonstrate that indeed regional reputation premiums have significantly increased with the creation of sub-AVAs; and that the price-quality ratio gap between sub-AVAs and the rest of Willamette has widened. (JEL Classification: C20, Q12, Q13, L66) Key Words: Wine, classification, terroir, AVA, regional reputation premium. * We would like to thank Karl Storchmann for providing the Wine Spectator data; and Huseyin Cakal, Neal Hulkower, Edward Tower and the participants of the Session 3: Regulating the Industry of the 7th Annual AAWE Conference in Stellenbosch, South Africa for their helpful comments and suggestions. a School of Diplomacy and International Relations, Seton Hall University, South Orange, 07079, USA.

  • WILLAMETTE VALLEY WINE American Viticultural Areas & Soils
    Media Contact: Emily Petterson [email protected] 503-550-8161 WILLAMETTE VALLEY WINE American Viticultural Areas & Soils No grape variety is as reflective of climatic and site differences as Pinot noir. That is why it demands a cool climate to thrive and why small distance differences in the valley often yield wines of distinc- tively different character. General attributes that make the Willamette Valley suitable for cool climate grape growing include the protection afforded by the Cascade Mountains to the east, Coast Range mountains to the west and a series of lower hill chains to the extreme north of the valley. Almost all grape growing is done on lower hillsides, avoiding deeply fertile alluvial soils and cooler hilltop meso- climates. It is on these hillsides that Pinot noir uniqueness is found and where apparent families of wines urge distinctive American Viticultural Area identification. In 2002, a collaborative action of vineyards and wineries delineated and submitted to the TTB petitions to divide much of the northern part of the large Willamette Valley AVA into six more specific AVAs: Chehalem Mountains, Dundee Hills, Eo- la-Amity Hills, McMinnville, Ribbon Ridge, and Yamhill-Carlton. Chehalem Mountains AVA, established 2006 The Chehalem Mountains AVA is a single uplifted landmass southwest of Portland in the northern Willamette Valley, extending 20 miles in length and 5 miles in breadth, stretching from southeast to northwest. It includes several discrete spurs, mountains and ridges, such as Ribbon Ridge and Par- rett Mountain. The highest point within the Willamette Valley is the Chehalem Mountains’ Bald Peak (at 1,633 feet) which affects weather for the AVA and for adjoining grape growing hillsides.

Burns, Chair Robert B. Perkins Andrew Fountain Martin LaFrenz Teresa Bulman Portland State University 2016 © 2016 Kathryn Nora Barnard Abstract Terroir is determined by a combination of factors in the vineyard including the grape varietal, geology and soil, soil hydrology, physiography, and climate. Although most studies have examined regional differences in wine flavors and associated provenance of wine based on chemistry, few have examined the chemistry of the soil and the ability to trace that chemistry to grape juice and, finally, to the wine.

Bill Fuller, a green valley of deep forests and wide open meadows. This fertile valley had a mild climate, classmate of Lett and Coury at Davis, helped an investment banker find a vineyard site north plenty of water, and soil that promised healthy crops. Today the Willamette Valley is the most of Forest Grove. He quit his winemaking job in Napa and became the winemaker at Tualatin densely planted and most recognized winegrowing region in Oregon. Vineyards, making their first wine in 1973. While wine grapes have been grown in Oregon since the mid 1800s, the year 1965 Dick and Nancy Ponzi, who came to Oregon from California with their three small children, was pivotal in our history: it saw the arrival of the first new wave of post-Prohibition founded Ponzi Vineyards in 1970 and produced their first wines in 1974. Myron Redford, winegrowers. David Lett, who would found The Eyrie Vineyards with his future wife Diana, who learned to make wine in the Seattle area, purchased a recently planted vineyard and and Chuck and Shirley Coury, who founded Charles Coury Vineyards, brought cuttings of founded Amity Vineyards in 1974, producing his first Amity wine in 1976. With the 1977 Pinot noir and ten other varieties to the Willamette Valley. As students together at the vintage, Elk Cove Vineyards and Sokol Blosser Winery both joined the mini-rush to make University of California at Davis, Lett and Coury concluded that the Willamette Valley’s cool wines as other small vineyards and wineries established themselves in the north end of the climate would be a better place to plant the varieties of northern Europe than the established Valley as well as further south near Salem.
