Nestled in the warm, Mediterranean-like climate of Happy Canyon, Vogelzang Vineyard provides an ideal environment for Graciano.
Known for its well-drained, gravelly loam soils, this site encourages deep roots and concentrated fruit. The long growing season and significant diurnal temperature swings in this AVA allow for the perfect balance of ripeness and acidity.
Interestingly, our Graciano rows are still labeled "Mourvèdre" due to a famous varietal mix-up in the region, adding to the unique character of this vineyard’s story.
