MORE INFORMATION
Coleman Vineyard is a vineyard and winery owned and operated by Randy and Kim Coleman. They produce small amounts of highly sought after Pinot noir and Pinot gris each year from their Estate vineyard. Winemakers Randy and Kim pay attention to the unique terroir of their vineyard,working to reflect the site and climate in the scents and flacors of their wines.
Coleman Vineyard is located in the Coast Range foothills of Yamhill County in the Willamette Valley, was initially planted in 1991. The vineyard consists of 13.5 acres of Pinot Noir, clones Pommard, Dijon 114, and Dijon 115, along with 9 acres of Pinot Gris. The site is 300-500 feet elevation with silty clay loams on a fractured volcanic basalt base. The vineyard is close to the Van Duzer corridor,
an opening through the Coast Range mountains to the Oregon coast, providing
hot summer days with afternoon winds cooling the evening temperatures significantly.
We believe this temperature variation, along with the volcanic soils, contribute
to the phenolic characteristics and brightness of the wine, providing a
structure for aging and signature dark cherry, intense color and flavors.
Because of these unique influences, the coastal foothills of McMinnville
has become a new appellation in the Willamette Valley, known
as the 'McMinnville Appellation'.
