Battle Creek
Set among the peaceful, rolling hills of the beautiful Willamette Valley , Battle Creek Vineyards is a picture of abundance as it stretches out across 135 acres under an expansive, generous sky. Each acre of Battle Creek is devoted to the planting of a single grape varietal—Pinot Noir. The environment is perfectly suited to meet the needs of this demanding varietal. Long afternoons of sunshine are tempered by coastal breezes that keep the climate cool, even in the summer. The volcanic soil is rich with nutrients and is well drained, keeping the soil warm for properly ripening the grapes. Laid out in a carefully planned and coordinated approach, the vineyard is divided into 21 different blocks with select clones and rootstocks, and diverse microclimates, slope, and elevations. Such precision allows the winemaker to blend Battle Creek Pinot Noir into a masterpiece—a wine with depth, complexity, and sophistication. >> website |
