Mahogany
Mountain Vineyard and Winery is a small, family owned and operated winery
specializing in limited production
of handcrafted premium Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah,
Mourvedre
and Zinfandel. Our vineyards are located in a picturesque and
sunny high valley (1,500 ft. elevation) in Ramona, California
surrounded by mountains. Our microclimate is perfect for growing
red grape varietals: hot long summer days and cool nights produce
beautifully ripe fruits with deep intense flavors.
In
1996, we started making wine on premises using locally grown
grapes. In 1997, we planted our own vineyards with Cabernet
Sauvignon, Merlot, Mourvedre and Zinfandel varietals. In 2004, we expanded
our vineyard to add Syrah to our collection of red wine varietals.
Our wine-making techniques include hand-picked and organically
grown grapes, small bin fermentation, hand
punch-down of caps, hand press and fermentation in small oak
barrels. We take great pride in every aspect of grape-growing
and every step of wine-making to ensure the quality of our handcrafted estate
wines.
On
January 6, 2006, the Ramona Valley was designated as an American
Viticultural Area by the Federal Taxation and Trade Bureau.
Our
estate wines are sold online HERE
and at the following local shops:
Orchard's, Stars,
and Stage Stop in Ramona.
You
can taste our wines at Country Cellars Wine Bar in Santa Isabel near
Julian.
Our
wines are also available at various shops and restaurants throughout
San Diego.
