The soil within this polygon is clever combination of red and black basalt, consisting of vertical and horizontal fractures. These soils also have a distinct marbling of slow cooling, irregularly shaped, vesicular basalt.

The soil here is riddled with a thick layer of black and grey irregular basalt rocks that are slow cooling vesicular igneous rocks. These rocks sit upon a larger layer of bedrock consisting of vertically fractured basalt.

The rocky soil in Chehalem has a distinctive moderately fractured basalt composition and contains three types of basalt; black, red, and white. The white basalt takes its color from volcanic ash while the red shows its pronounced color from oxidation.

This soil has a distinctive constitution of pure alteritic basalt, which sits upon a layer of older vesiculated alterite.

The rocky soil in Chehalem has a distinctive moderately fractured basalt composition and contains three types of basalt; black, red, and white. The white basalt takes its color from volcanic ash while the red shows its pronounced color from oxidation. In addition, the basalts are shot through with weathered black basalt pebbles.

The polygon within our vineyard in Eola-Amity is incredibly special due to its high amount of medium-weathered red and black basalt within its structure. This layer is surrounded by topsoil and thin alterite above and vertically fractured vesicular basalt bedrock below.
