Our Pinot Blanc is sourced from Bieze Vineyard, in the Eola-Amity Hills. John has been working with this fruit for years, and every vintage the Pinot Blanc is one of his favorite wines. It’s spritely, classic, and so food friendly it literally makes your mouth water. ⁠
⁠
We’re bringing the 2022, 2023, and 2024 vintage with us to Pinot Blanc Oregon, the annual Pinot Blanc fest on May 3. Do you have your tickets yet?

Earth is in everything we do. 🌍⁠
⁠
In every step of the process, GC Wines commits itself to sustainability. From the vineyards we farm and source from, to natural and low intervention winemaking, to the packaging we use. ⁠
⁠
Every decision is made with the greatest intention, and John is careful and thoughtful with how he selects partners in this project. We’re working for tomorrow, and enjoying great wine today.

We love the Equinox tasting every year! 2026 marks the 20th anniversary of the Eola-Amity Hills AVA, and Equinox will bring together the wines, people, and perspectives that have shaped one of Oregon’s most distinctive winegrowing regions on Saturday, May 2. ⁠
⁠
We’re pouring with our neighbors at Zenith Vineyard and can’t wait to share a deep dive into this region with you.

Bud break at Vivid Vineyard!⁠
⁠
We have been working with Vivid Vineyard since 2016, and we lease the vineyard and manage the farming ourselves. We recently hired Laurent of Sap Vineyard Services as our vineyard manager. ⁠
⁠
This 3-acre vineyard sits at about 600 feet in the Eola-Amity Hills, and is planted to Chardonnay and Pinot Noir on rich, Jory soils. The vines are looking healthier than ever, and we’re excited to see what this vintage holds!

So you wanna know about Pinot Blanc? ⁠
⁠
Join us to taste expressions of Oregon Pinot Blanc from 14 producers, and get to know this stunning variety in all its glory. ⁠
⁠
Pinot Blanc is a genetic mutation of Pinot Noir (just like Pinot Gris and Pinot Meunier). Grown across Europe, Oregon became the largest US producer of Pinot Blanc last year, and the variety is growing. ⁠
⁠
We’ll be pouring Pinot Blanc from the 2022, 2023, and 2024 vintages, so you can see the difference in growing season within one grape variety! Grab your tickets at the link in our bio, and we’ll see you there!

The perfect springtime red: gloriously fruity, chillable, easy to quaff with dinner or while enjoying the breeze on your porch.

Thank you and for this thorough look at some of the best chillable reds in the Pacific Northwest! ⁠
⁠
We’re pretty big fans of drinking wine casually at Casa Grochau, and a chillable red is perfect for that: pair with your charcuterie, your early-season veggies, or just your favorite book! An easy sipping, elegant, crunchy red-fruited wine is exactly the right vibe.

just named the Willamette Valley one of the world’s best Chardonnay regions, and we couldn’t agree more. ⁠
⁠
John on our 2022 Willamette Valley Chardonnay: “The Chardonnay is very citrusy, zesty, bright and fresh. With a limited amount of new oak, aged on lees 16 months to build the mid-palate texture, and a little salty on the finish. This is my favorite food wine, it just suits so many palates.”

03/06/2026

We were happy to share our 2023 Chardonnays with , who loved tasting the Willamette Valley and Vivid Vineyard Chardonnay side by side. ⁠
⁠
Vivid Vineyard is the vineyard we lease and farm ourselves, and recently completed sap flow pruning on the vines there. We can’t wait for what the 2026 vintage has in store for us!
