The Lumiere from the Eola-Amity Hills is part of our Terroir Series that includes the Dundee Hills Cuvee and the Nuages from the Chehalem Mountains. We have produced the Lumière since 2010 and the 2017 version is a blend of the two vineyards we work with in the Eola-Amity Hills being En Gedi and Bieze. Always the darkest and most structured of our AVA wines.
