MEET GRETCHEN

Hi, I'm Gretchen Voelcker, winemaker and creator of Luna Hart Wines. My passion for wine began while living in Europe and visiting the many wonderful wine regions and vignobles in France. This passion was fueled by my love of nature and all things outdoors bringing me to California where I've had the fortune of working with gifted winemakers, mentors and role-models.

At the heart of Luna Hart's philosophy is a commitment to vineyards practicing sustainable, organic, or biodynamic farming throughout the enchanting landscapes of Santa Barbara County. Gretchen's vision is to create wines that resonate with the very soul of the grapes—their origin, vintage, and variety—a true reflection of the terroir.
