Naked Winery in Hood River: New Name, Still an Oregon Treasure

The Winery Formerly Known as Naked Winery in Hood River

Although people may be adjusting to the name change, this very popular winery remains a gem in the Columbia River Gorge wine scene.

North of California’s prestigious Napa Valley, the wineries in Oregon and Washington State have made a name for themselves. In the past decades, Washington itself has more than tripled its number of wineries and the industry is continuing to grow! Cool climate grapes thrive in this area, and wineries like Evoke, have certainly made the most of them.

Evoke Winery has a few tasting rooms in Oregon and Washington, however, there’s something special when you come to the one in Hood River. Evoke wines are primarily crafted here in the Gorge at their Hood River wine making facility. You can schedule a private tour and tasting – making your visit that much more connected to the amazing process that is viniculture. 

The Wines

Like the original Naked Winery in Hood River, Evoke offers a variety of wine types. They believe that good wine starts with the ingredients, so they put extra care into how they source their grapes. They offer both red and white wines which took their hunt for the perfect grapes around the region and a bit into California.

Evoke’s red grapes benefit from heat, so they are primarily grown in the hot and dry Applegate and Columbia Valley regions of Oregon and Washington. Their white grapes are grown in the cool climate of Willamette and Rogue Valley and Columbia Gorge to produce subtle and complex wines. You can browse through their varieties at the tasting room or order online!
