| WINE INVESTIGATION FOR NOVICES & OENOPHILES
Graziano Winery of Mendocino, with winemaker Greg Graziano
Current labels for the Graziano Family of Wines are Saint Gregory, Monte Volpe, Enotria and Graziano. The four
labels are crafted to preserve each variety's integrity by employing time honored Old World cellar practices perfected
by the gentle application of modern technology. The intensity of the fruit flavors and the balance of natural acidity of
Mendocino hillside grown grapes, allow great flexibility at every level of wine making. Each variety's character is
preserved and highlighted because we are blessed with fruit that need little manipulation or intrusive intervention.
