Vecchio Gafen Winery has been making wine since 1998 in the city of Jackson in Amador County, California.

We are producing about three hundred cases a year of Viognier, Syrah and Zinfandel. Our credo is to let the wine reflect the soil and climate in which it is grown. We try to stay out of the way and let each vintage develop its own unique qualities.

While many wineries inoculate their wine with yeasts developed in laboratories, we prefer to let the natural yeasts that exist on each grape facilitate the fermentation process. We age the reds for eighteen months in American and European oak and we barrel ferment the Viognier, then age it in European oak for six months.
