P inots from the Willamette Valley An AVA (American Viticultural Area) is a designated wine grape-growing region in the United States distinguishable by geographic features Willamette Valley ava, EST. 1983 2011 Cristom “Mt. Jefferson”, HALF-BOTTLE 2012 Roco 2012 Trathen Hall “Antiquum” 46 50 95 “As time has passed, and the vines have aged, we can now truly see the revelation of distinct geology of individual AVAs, especially in Pinot Noir. It’s amazing to see the world embrace and celebrate the soils, vines and wines from this incredible region.” -Mary Davis, Oregon Brand Management Chehalem Mountains ava, EST. 2006 2012 J. Christopher Wines “Lia's Vineyard” 2011 Colene Clemens “Margo” 102 55 Within this region there are ancient, uplifted sedimentary seabeds, weathered rich red soils from lava flows down the Columbia River, and relatively new glacial sediment scoured from western states and blown onto north-facing hillsides from wind storms. Ribbon Ridge ava, EST. 2005 2007 Beaux Frères Estate 2013 Patricia Green Estate 160 70 “Due to the nature of the thin marine soils in Ribbon Ridge, the collection of farmers and winemakers there represent the highest concentration of organically- farmed vineyards and wines made in Ribbon Ridge, more so than any AVA in Oregon, show you the intersection of land, plant and people.” -Jim Anderson Co-owner, Patricia Green Cellars Eola-Amity Hills ava, EST. 2006 2011 Domaine Serene “Evenstad” 2010 Brooks “Temperance Hill” 135 85 The soils here are predominantly volcanic basalt from ancient lava flows, combined with marine sedimentary rock and alluvial deposits. Cool ocean winds flow through the Van Duzer corridor, dropping temperatures there dramatically, which helps to retain firm acidity in the fruit. Mc Minville ava, EST. 2005 2009 Trathen Hall Maysara Vineyard Dundee Hills ava, EST. 2005 180 210 130 Geologically, the Dundee Hills consist of a single, continuous landmass that rises above the surrounding Willamette Valley floor. It is part of a hill chain that developed as a result of volcanic activity and the collision of the Pacific and North American plates.

Elegant. Enduring.” One of the only AVAs with required elevation, vineyards must sit between 200ft and 1000ft above sea level. This protects from frost, allowing grapes to ripen longer, developing and intensitying the flavors. Known for being fruitforward with more developed tannins, these wines are often age-worthy. 2012 Archery Summit “Arcus Estate” 2012 White Rose Estate 2012 JK Carriere “Anderson Valley” White 2013 Binner natural & unfiltered, Les Saveurs Alsace FRA 2013 François Cazin, Cheverny FRA 2011 Dom.

This leads to early bud formation and frost protection, allowing longer ripening. Wines exude powerful fruit aromas,scented with rose, violet and lavender, framed by minerality.
