The Resonance Vineyard

Located within Oregon’s Willamette Valley, Résonance vineyard is situated in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA, just west of Carlton at the foothills of the Coast Range. It is a 32 acre property, with 20 acres of the vineyard planted to Pinot Noir. The vineyard sits on a convex portion of a low, west to east oriented ridge emerging out of the Coast Range and lies at an altitude of 80 to 150 meters above sea level. Soils are primarily Willakenzie (old sedimentary deposits) and Yamhill (ancient submarine basaltic soil). With its non-grafted rootstocks planted in 1981, the dry-farmed vineyard is one of the oldest in the Willamette Valley.
