Our Wines (REDS ONLY)
We produced limited quantities of premium hand-crafted red wines And our last vintage was 2021.
The tasting room was used as our production area where we fermented and hand pressed our grapes, barrel and bottle on site.
Our unique process using small format 30 gallon America Oak barrels is used by few if any in our area. We hope someday to find someone interested to learn and pass on our knowledge .
Painted Barrels & Art
Painted wine barrels of Southern Oregon land and seascapes by Paula Guzzo are featured as seating in the GFV Tasting Room along with displays of other artwork that have been or will be painted on barrels as they are retired from our production. The barrels and art are for guests to view and enjoy. Painted barrels and art can be purchased in tasting room. Painted barrels can also be commissioned to your specified scenes.
About Us
A Boutique Winery and Tasting Room
Guzzo Family Vineyard is a boutique winery was established in 2012 in Murphy Oregon. The GFV Tasting Room opened late 2018 and offers a safe and relaxing environment with open air seating for up to 25 guests.
Tony and Paula Guzzo are total hands-on winemakers during the entire wine making process, production and bottling of limited quantities of award winning Red wines.
This small Italian style vineyard is located on the edge of the Applegate Valley AVA producing the first small batches of GFV reserve dessert wines in 2017. The majority of our grapes are purchased from select Rogue and Applegate Valley growers for our main varietals.
Our unique winemaking technique to barrel age in new 30 gallon and 1 year old American Oak and ages wine in less time than in the traditional larger barrels, then the wine is moved into stainless steel tanks and then bottle aged, resulting in one of the best hand crafted red wines and "crazy good" wine tasting experiences possible.
This technique may not follow the traditions of winemaking and GFV may be seen as a renegade in the spirit of the original "garagiste" in the winemaking world.
These Missouri Oak barrels are purchased from The Oak Cooperage and creates beautiful fruit flavors with hints of vanilla "Find out more" about these barrels on the link below.
We are so blessed and grateful for the outpouring of support from all of our family and friends of GFV. It is YOU that made this so much fun. We have enjoyed sharing our story with so many of you and saying farewell is bittersweet 🍷 cheers 🍷
Thank you so much for making us one of your wine tasting destinations. We will miss you all!
Here's to you!
Cheers!
Tony and Paula Guzzo
