Taste Arizona First

Arizona wine may be new to some, but has a rich history in this challenging

terrain that is older than the state itself. Jesuit priests brought the first Vinifera to Arizona around 1690. Today, Arizona’s largest & most diverse vineyard, Dragoon Mountain Vineyard thrives in Southeast Arizona.

Our skilled winemaker crafts each wine, carefully to exalt the Arizona wine grape, sourcing from this beautiful, pioneering vineyard planted over two decades ago. Our wines display the distinctive characteristics of each grape brought forth from our rich soils in one of the world’s most unique and truly special growing regions, Willcox, Arizona 

When you choose to enjoy Arizona wine, enjoy an Arizona grown wine. Taste our history, taste our terroir. Taste Arizona, first.  

Surrounded by a nearly perfect ring of five distinct mountain ranges in what is referred to scientifically as a caldera, 59 soil types define this growing region. Very hot, dry desert days make the wine grapes struggle to become their best and cool night allow the grapes to rest and retain the perfect acidity.  This preserves the delicious, natural flavors and characteristics of the grapes that will make some of the finest wines in the world. 

After nearly a four year research and application process, Willcox was recognized bt the Federal Government as an exceptional growing region and awarded the distinction of being a unique American Viticultural Area. 

At Winery 1912, you will enjoy the Spanish and Iberian varietals grown at Dragoon Mountain Vineyard. Arizona's largest and most diverse vineyard is set close to the same paths walked by the early Spanish monks to establish their missions and the first vineyards in Arizona 200 years before the west coast.
