Terrior


Oh those French! I really do love them. What's not to love from a culture that's been making wine for millennium! We're such little babes. Yet, terriour is earth, any where you find it. We are finding out that Umpqua Valley does a pretty good job of it.

I'm no soil expert, that's for sure. Dirt is dirt. But when you throw a 777 Pinot Noir clone in it, things start to happen. My attitude is very simple: just love the little fellows. From what I can tell of the wine makers I've meet around here, there's a lot of love goin' on!

If you love to explore for your next great wine discovery then plan a visit to the Umpqua Valley. If you'd like to be brought up to speed in an enjoyable way then join us on a wine tour. And don't forget to say hello to the vines doing their job out in the fields! Wine Tours!
