The Perfect Summer Wines (and Wine Club): Three Muses
Long Shadows Vintners' "Three Muses" white wines are crafted to inspire our higher essence and elicit the joy that comes from following our passions in literature, music, and the arts.
Get to know these three fantastic wines:
Where did we come up with the name?
Our founder, Allen Shoup, was an energetic and generous supporter of the arts. You can see his Chihuly glass collection in our Chihuly Tasting Room in Walla Walla, commissioned pieces of art in our Woodinville Tasting Room, and his antique toy collection at Nine Hats in Seattle.
When it came time to name our three flagship white wines, it only seemed fitting to honor the Muses of Greek Mythology and hope that our ambrosia could bring inspiration to your pursuits, be it a quiet night on the patio or a lively gathering with friends and family.
2023 Cymbal Sauvignon Blanc
Intensely aromatic, with expressive layers of lemongrass, passion fruit and honeysuckle. Bright and balanced, showing lively acidity on the palate, with delicious ripe kiwi, mango and white nectarine flavors stretching across a lasting finish.

The 2023 Poet's Leap Riesling is a beautiful, vibrant wine showcasing aromas of white blossoms and ripe orchard fruits, complemented by subtle flinty notes. Exuding freshness and brightness on the palate, the wine unveils layers of flavor, notably white peach, green apple and a distinct minerality.
