Mike O'Connell and his wife Kathy established Grayson Cellars as an answer to the burgeoning prices of California wine. Fruit for the Grayson wines are sourced from vineyards throughout California. By blending these plots and excluding their regional designations, the price stays remarkably low.

Over 80% of all North American wine is grown in California, thats more than any country outside of Europe! The dominant influences are the Pacific Ocean and mountain ranges caused by tectonic plate shifting. The greater California area produces a vast variety of styles of wine, and varietals.
