The Hat Trick, an 'achievement based on threes.' has found its way into the sports world typically meaning three goals or scores. This is a spectacular blend of Malbec, Tempranillo, and Merlot that is balanced to perfection. We think it is a 'Hat Trick' all on its own.

Hat Trick Red

White

Our Estate grown Muscat Ottonel is fermented to dryness inspired by an old world style, hence 'Dry Moscato.' This light layered wine has nodes of pineapple and other tropical fruits. Serve chilled with your favorite charcuterie or seafood dish. Silver Medal 2024 Cascadia International and Idaho Wine Competitions.

Dry Moscato

Grüner is not often found grown in the U.S., but it does well in our Idaho climate. Light and crisp with aromas of yellow apple and pear, this Grüner Veltliner is fresh and balanced with a clean, mineral finish and versatile white for any occasion.

Grüner Veltliner

Rich and bold, the 2022 Syrah opens with dark fruit aromas of blueberry and plum layered with subtle tobacco notes. On the palate, it's full-bodied and structured, with smooth tannins and a lingering finish. Perfectly suited to dark meats and heartier dishes, this Syrah delivers depth and complexity in every sip.

Hat Ranch Syrah

Aged entirely in neutral oak to highlight the character of our estate fruit, this Tempranillo opens with inviting aromas of dried cherry and fig. The palate is structured yet approachable, offering layers of dried fruit, tobacco, and leather. Earthy undertones and fine tannins lead into a smooth, lingering finish that speaks to both the varietal’s tradition and the unique expression of our vineyard.

Estate Tempranillo

Made in 75% new oak for added structure and length. Oak and vanilla on the nose, opens up to black cherry and black currant on the palate with medium acidity that will lend to better aging, firm tannins, and a long finish.

Vale Cabernet Sauvignon

Viognier Blend

The second wine in our Hat Trick series: a blend of Viognier, Muscat Ottonel, and Grüner Veltliner.

Hat Trick White

French for “little green one,” this late ripening grape was traditionally only used in Bordeaux blends as it often had to be harvested before it was fully red.  From Sawtooth Vineyard, we make ours a single varietal with a splash of Rockspur Merlot.  It has aromas and flavors of blackberry, plum, and some herbal and floral notes. Double Gold 90 Points 2024 Cascadia International Wine Competition.

This is our more traditional Chardonnay. When aged in oak, in addition to the fruity characteristics like apple and pineapple, it takes on warmer flavors and aromas like cinnamon and vanilla. Also having undergone malolactic fermentation, you can find notes of butter.

Vale Chardonnay

Red Blend

Tempranillo gets its name from Temprano; meaning early in Spanish and is the dominant variety in Spain. The Snake River Valley's warm days and cool nights make Tempranillo ideally suited for this region and we believe the proof is in the bottle! Enjoy with bolder meat dishes and aged Spanish cheeses.

Rosé

This blend of Malbec, Merlot, and a splash of Cabernet Franc tastes like fresh-picked garden strawberries in summer. Bursting with flavor but only about 1% residual sugar. 

Hat Trick Rosé

A classic Moscato with notes of honeysuckle, peach, and pear. 

Sweet Moscato

Forget the oak! This light, fresh, appealing style of Chardonnay was aged in stainless steel.  Enjoy this satisfying and versatile wine by itself or with lighter foods. Best White, Best Chardonnay, Double Gold Medal 2023 Idaho Wine Competition.

Unoaked Chardonnay

This off-dry Rosé is 50/50 blend of Malbec and Merlot from Skyline Vineyards. Lightly sweet with big flavors of strawberries and cream, this will surely be an excellent patio wine.

Vale Rosé

A light, crisp floral white with notes of peach and honeysuckle.

Vale Viognier

Double Gold Medal 2025 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition. It is a light, crisp, and delicious wine with bright acidity and notes of honeysuckle, citrus, and green apple.

Grown at the fantastic Rockspur Vineyard, this Merlot has vanilla bean and fresh blueberry aromas that make way for ripe plumes, black cherry, and slight spice on the finish with medium acidity and tannins. This will pair well with meat dishes, bolder cheese like bleu cheese and decadent chocolate desserts.

Vale Merlot

Bright red berry and hint of oak on the nose. Red cherry, raspberry, dried strawberry flavors with bright balanced acidity and slight mocha finish. Classic cool climate Syrah!

Vale Syrah

The nose leads with warm baking spices, cloves, nutmeg, a touch of cedar, layered over subtle dried fruit aromas like fig and black currant. On the palate, it's bright and structed, with juicy acidity carrying through red and dark fruit tones.

A blend from Sawtooth and Williamson Vineyards, with a splash of Petit Verdot. It features flavors of black cherry and blackberry, with subtle notes of leather and licorice. Firm tannins and a smooth finish make it a versatile red for meals or sipping.
