Lenora Winery

Specialties

Lenora Winery showcases the premium wine grapes of Ramona Valley’s small vineyards. We are a small winery specializing in bottling limited to one to several barrels of premium wines. Our micro-​climate makes this an ideal American Viticultural Area (A.V.A.) for premium wine making. Our 5-​acre vineyard produces several outstanding wine grape varieties including Cabernet Sauvignon, Muscat Alexandria, Merlot, Sangiovese, Grenache, Sauvignon Blanc, Zinfandel and Chardonnay. Wine is made at our 2,000 square foot winery in the vineyard and aged under controlled conditions.

Please join us at the Lenora Winery tasting bar where we serve wine by glass or by bottle of over ten of our excellent locally produced wines. Experience our beautiful vineyard and outdoors picnic area while sipping on wine poured by the winemaker himself! With the ability to bring your own food, you can enjoy wine ‘n dine under grape arbor and have a wonderful time.

History

Established in 1999.

Lenora Winery made its debut in the wine world in 1999 with its first vintage carefully harvested from its own 5 acre vineyard. Lenora Winery’s vineyard contains eight varietals and is blessed with daily gentle breezes which keep vines healthy and fruitful. Clear skies, warm days and cool nights work magic on the grapes as they grow to harvest. At 1,570 feet, the temperature is ideal for growing high quality wine grapes and making premium wines.

In January, 2006, the Ramona Valley American Viticultural Area was proclaimed to include Lenora Winery’s location. In March 2011, the tasting room officially opened at the property. Lenora Winery is growing, not just wine grapes, but expanding, too. Another Ramona site at 2,350 foot elevation is being developed with a 2,400 square foot winery and thirteen acres of wine grape vines.
