" We don't sell the wine without touching the vine "
Wine from Voix de la Vigne Project
Filter
Voix de la Vigne is Robert Morrison's project in Willamette Valley, Oregon.
Date Founded: 2015
Owner: Robert Morrison
Winery Philosophy: "It was my desire to create a brand that is eye-candy for the Francophile—it looks like an old bottle of Burgundy, yet it is domestic and affordable. The concept of the label tells the buyer what to expect from the wine. I wanted a wine that was low alcohol, and light-medium bodied, without lacking flavor—a wine that is more suited to those who appreciate elegance and finesse." - Robert Morrison
"Voix de la Vigne started as a natural next step for me in the wine business. In addition to my distribution company in California, I sell wine nationally for Laurent Montalieu (founding winemaker at Willakensie Estate).
Laurent, in a very short amount of time, has grown to be among the largest growers of Pinot Noir in the Willamette Valley. He farms over 700 acres of vines, including the venerable Hyland Vineyard which he owns himself and is bio-dynamically farmed.
In California, I have been distributing Laurent’s three brands since 2009. Based on my close working relationship with Laurent and his team, we decided to collaborate on a new Pinot Noir for the National market."

Checkerboard Kings Row Red is made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petit Verdot.
2019 Checkerboard Kings Row is produced from grapes grown in the Aurora Vineyard which is located in a small valley midway up Diamond Mountain on a large knoll at an elevation of 1,200 feet. The knoll projects off the mountainside, giving the vineyard full southern exposure, open light from the east and west, and protection from Napa Valley’s summer fog. Six acres are planted in the knoll’s rich, volcanic soils that are riddled with basalt cobble and loamy clay. The remaining six acres are planted in a deep gravely mix of white volcanic ash and chips of decomposed Rhyolite that were washed down from the steep, rocky crags of Diamond Mountain above. 2019 Checkerboard Kings Row is a complex wine showcasing the Bordeaux varietals grown in the Aurora Vineyard. The nose is a swirl of dark red fruits, baking spice, and sandalwood. On the palate, the fruit dominates and offers hints of dried crushed herbs, black pepper, and freshly pressed espresso. There’s a juicy core which is persistent from the approach through to the finish.
Powerful and driven, State Ranch captivates the nose with a perfume of mixed wild berries, black cherry and aromatic herbs. At once juicy and concentrated, layers of black plum, black currant, and clove flavors unfold on the tongue. Polished tannins melt into the palate, beautifully framing the wine from the entry to the long, silky finish.
Review:
Blackcurrants, violets and other flowers. Cassis bush. Lavender. Medium-bodied with a beautiful center palate and layers of very fine tannins. Lovely length and harmony. You want to drink this one now.
