Basalte is a finely structured, sustainably produced Pinot Noir that reflects the rocky basalt subsoil of the northern Willamette Valley. Basalte Pinot Noir is our estate-bottled Willamette Valley wine. The wine comes from vineyards in two AVAs (American Viticultural Areas) – Chehalem Mountains and Dundee Hills – characterized by fractured basalt covered by clay topsoil. This type of stony soil lends itself to a full-bodied, structured wine. Basalte captures this expressive soil character with deep red fruit and a fine tannin structure.

Traditional Mosel-Style Winemaking

We craft our wines following the 1900s Mosel tradition.

World-famous slate steep vineyards

in the Central Mosel

In Germany and around the world – Ernst Loosen's wine projects beyond the Moselle.

Great wines, in Ernst Loosen’s view, are born wherever soil, climate, and grape variety form a distinctive unity. This conviction has led him far beyond the Mosel. In Germany’s Pfalz, he has revived the historic Villa Wolf estate, while in Puligny-Montrachet in Burgundy he has breathed new life into the venerable Maison Perron de Mypont. In Oregon, his projects Appassionata Estate and J. Christopher Wines produce Pinot Noirs of world-class quality.

Each of these ventures carries Ernst’s unmistakable signature: authenticity, precision, and an uncompromising commitment to capturing the character of a place in every bottle.
