Welcome to the RVVA Library
2008 Lum Eisenman Ramona Valley Wine Competition
_________________________________________________
Welcome to the on-line library of the Ramona Valley Vineyard Association, an unincorporated association of vineyard owners and supporters in the Ramona Valley American Viticulture Area (AVA) in San Diego County, California, USA (www.ramonavalleyvineyards.org).
We are all dedicated to the production of quality wine grapes and the establishment of a quality wine region. We believe that the Ramona Valley has a unique opportunity to start out on the right foot with this project by taking advantage of recent developments in viticulture and enology world-wide. Our goal is to avoid "reinventing the wheel", or repeating previous errors, while at the same time realizing that our region is unique, and past research and experiences in the viticulture world may not apply to us.
All RVVA members are invited and encouraged to post information on this site that they think other members would like to access. While the "whole world" can see this site (as with any other web site) only RVVA members can add or change content.
We pride ourselves in being generous with the information we've individually accumulated and learned so that the Ramona Valley can enjoy accelerated success.
