2022 Leah Jorgensen Cellars Loiregon Blanc de Cabernet Franc

The Moment

Every once in a while, a wine surprises you.

A white wine made from Cabernet Franc sounds unusual — and that’s exactly what makes this bottle so compelling. The 2022 “Loiregon” Blanc de Cabernet Franc takes a red grape and transforms it into something bright, aromatic, and quietly elegant.

Fresh citrus, delicate stone fruit, and subtle herbal lift create a wine that feels both familiar and completely new.

What It Feels Like

Think a cool Oregon evening with the windows open — simple food on the table, a glass of something crisp in hand, and the feeling that you’ve discovered something a little special.

Inspired by the white Cabernet Franc wines of France’s Loire Valley, this wine blends Old World inspiration with Oregon freshness.

In the Glass

Why We Love This Bottle

A Unique Style
Blanc de Cabernet Franc is made by pressing Cabernet Franc grapes immediately after harvest, preventing color extraction and creating a fresh white wine.

A Bridge Between Loire & Oregon
The name “Loiregon” reflects the inspiration from France’s Loire Valley and the cool-climate character of Oregon.

A Conversation Starter
It’s the kind of wine that makes people pause, taste again, and ask about the story behind it.
