Micole Moore & Teri Kerns
Ramona Ranch Winery
Micole Moore and Teri Kerns moved to Ramona in 2004, with the intention of having a hobby farm, with chickens, a garden, and a horse or two. They quickly discovered that Ramona was also an excellent place to grow wine grapes and make wine. In 2006 the Ramona Valley was designated an AVA (American Viticultural Area). Micole and Teri jumped into the moment, planting their first vineyard in 2006 and began making their own white, rose and red wines, including Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Temperanillo, Sangiovese, Merlot and Tannat.
Today Ramona Ranch Vineyards and Winery is San Diego County’s only CSWA Certified California Sustainable vineyard and winery and the Ramona Valley’s #1 rated winery for four years in a row.
Since 2017 we have taken our wine club members on four different European river cruises, (Portugal, Germany, France and the Lower Danube Balkan nations) to Alaska, Tequila Mexico, Kentucky’s Bourbon Trail and New Orleans. Next year we invite you to join us as we sail down the mighty Rhine River to experience the Christmas Markets of Germany and Alsace.
There are two fantastic pre- and post-cruise land tours:
- 2-nights in Milan, Italy
- 2-nights in Lake Como Italy
- 2-nights in Amsterdam, to experience the best of the Dutch capital before flying home
On board we will conduct two tastings and a paired dinner with our own wines of Ramona Ranch Vineyards. More importantly, we’ll see a special side of Europe not experienced by most Americans, during an off-peak travel time with cool weather, colorful Christmas markets and good cheer all round.
Join us!
