Dr. Scott Burns (Portland State University, Portland, Oregon) gives an introduction to terroir, the relationship between soil and terroir, and an overview of the soils and geology of the Willamette Valley. His introduction includes a cameo of himself as a young professor and winemaker in Switzerland - not to be missed.
