The Revana Vineyard is located just 28 miles southwest of Portland, Oregon nestled in the Red Hills of Dundee. This unique appellation is marked by distinct geographic elements that effectively insulate this region from the dramatic weather variations experienced in nearby growing areas.
The topography is defined by ridges that run north and south, with small valleys on the east, south, and west sides. Because of the slopes and elevations, vineyards in the Dundee Hills benefit from warmer nights and less frost and fog than adjacent valley floors.
True to the appellation, the 80-acre property possesses an incredibly diverse and complex series of soils and exposures. Located between 320 feet and 650 feet above sea level, the site has 18 soil types spread over a combination of rolling hills, steep slopes, and rugged terrain.
The soils are primarily sedimentary silt and stone and volcanic stone with clay, and bedrock beneath is predominately sedimentary and basalt. In 2003, the previous property owner planted 13 acres, including Chardonnay and additional Pinot Noir vines.
To take advantage of the property’s tremendous soil variations, 32 micro blocks were established within the vineyard to pair ideal clonal and rootstock selections with individual soil types. Today, the L.I.V.E. Certified vineyard has grown to over 55 planted acres. Using sustainable farming methods, cover crops provide soil, nutrients, erosion control, and water competition.
