Identity

 

Soil

  • Distinctively situated in the northwest corner of the Willamette Valley AVA, the newly designated Laurelwood District AVA boasts a rare and interesting soil composition giving rise to characteristic wines.

  • Laurelwood soil is uniquely structured with fine windblown freshwater glacial loess layered atop an ancient 15-million-year-old basalt base.

  • The fractured basalt base allows deep root growth and good drainage for growing vines.
