WELCOME

 

 


Thank you for visiting Mahogany Mountain Vineyard and Winery!  We are located in beautiful Ramona, California, known as Valley of the Sun.  

Mahogany Mountain Vineyard and Winery is a small, family-owned and operated winery specializing in limited production of handcrafted fine wines from our estate-grown Barbera, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Mourvedre, Muscat Canelli, Petit Verdot, Syrah and Zinfandel. Our vineyards are located on 43 acres in a picturesque and sunny high valley (1,500 ft. elevation) in Ramona, California surrounded by mountains. Our microclimate is perfect for growing red wine grapes and dry-farming. Hot long summer days and cool nights produce beautifully ripe fruits with deep intense flavors.

Our philosophy is to grow grapes with as little impact on our surroundings as possible and live in harmony with the nature around us. 

Consequently, our farming practices follow a basic principle of maintaining a balanced and healthy environment in which we live.  We take great pride in every aspect of grape-growing and wine-making to ensure the quality of our handcrafted estate wines.

Our wine-making techniques include harvesting by hand organically grown grapes, small bin fermentation, hand punch-down of caps, hand press and aging in small oak barrels.  Our hand-crafted estate wines are made naturally with great care to capture the distinct varietal's flavors and aromatic qualities.

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. Since then, we expanded our vineyard to add Barbera, Petit Verdot and Syrah to our collection of red wine varietals. We recently planted a small vineyard of Muscat Canelli. 

 

On January 6, 2006, the Ramona Valley was designated as an American Viticultural Area by the Federal Taxation and Trade Bureau.

In November 2010, we opened our Tasting Room to the public!

Tasting Room Hours:

Sat. & Sun. 1 to 5 pm (extended hours are available upon request)

14905 Mussey Grade Road (actually on Mahogany Ranch Road)

Ramona, CA 92065

The drive to our tasting room is one of the most picturesque and scenic drives in San Diego County as Mussey Grade Road, the road leading to our winery and vineyards, is one of the most beautiful historical roads in San Diego County. It's lined with hundred-year-old California native oak trees, wild lilacs that bloom in the Spring and sycamore trees that have beautiful fall foliage in the Fall and Winter. It was the main stage coach road that connected the Back Country and Julian to Mission Valley and downtown San Diego. 

We hope you'll visit our tasting room soon!
