Our first white wine cuvée, perfect for sharing with friends and enjoying the last light of day. This wine wonderfully represents Oregon's grape-growing landscape with vineyard sourcing from Umpqua and Rogue Valley AVAs, our own estate vineyard, and the vineyard next door to us. Blend : 31% Viognier, 31% Müller-Thurgau, 25% Sauvignon Blanc, 13% Chardonnay

A Note from Winemaker, Leo Gabica

“I have been playing around with the idea of a white wine blend for a long time. I've been trying various blends and thinking of varietals. With 2023 bringing in record yields and experiencing ideal growing conditions in both the Willamette Valley and Southern Oregon, I felt this was the year to make it happen. I knew I wanted Sauvignon Blanc; it has nice acidity, and I enjoy the flavor profile. Our neighboring vineyard has Müller-Thurgau, adding a splash of complexity to the blend. Viognier has a rich flavor profile; this is where you get the stone-fruit notes. Lastly, I wanted to make sure our vineyard site was included and our Chardonnay was the last perfect edition to the blend. The Golden Hour was fermented in stainless steel to ensure the aromatics of the wine shine.”

Another fun aspect of blends is that they pair with a variety of cuisines and dishes. This will be your go-to summer wine for all of your gatherings, celebrations, and barbeques. We crafted this wine to be reminiscent of that stunning evening golden hour when the warmth of the sun can still be felt but isn't overpowering.
