Résonance is Maison Louis Jadot's first wine project outside of Burgundy, France, since our founding in 1859.  This Pinot Noir is our debut release from the beautiful, tree-lined Résonance Vineyard, in the Yamhill-Carlton wine region.  From un-grafted vines first planted in 1981, this single vineyard bottling shows the elegance and complexity Oregon Pinot Noirs are famous for.  Maison Louis Jadot, one of the most venerable, trusted and revered wine houses in the world, has been producing wines from the heartland of Pinot Noir, the French region of Burgundy with its first purchase of the Clos des Ursules vineyard in 1826.  For its first venture outside of France, the Louis Jadot team became interested in the terroir and wines from Oregon.  In 2013, the ideal location was found and a vineyard bought in the Willamette Valley, specifically the Yamhill-Carlton AVA region.  The Résonance project is led by famed Jadot Winemaker, Jacques Lardière, who takes  42 years of experience in winemaking from the beautiful Pinot Noirs of Burgundy to the world’s most up and coming Pinot Noir regions.

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.
