Ruby Hill Winery
Livermore Valley Wine Country
The wine label pictured here depicts the original Ruby Hill Winery, which dates back to 1887. Founder John Crellin named the winery for the vineyard's rich, red soil. More than a century later—in February 2008—Ruby Hill Winery celebrated its grand opening at a new location in Pleasanton. Ruby Hill's wine list is primarily estate, focusing on Zinfandel and Petit Sirah varieties. The winery is committed to producing estate quality wines at affordable prices, which has made it very popular with local wine enthusiasts. Not surprisingly, the winery had a following before it officially opened.
Ruby Hill Winery is located at 400 Vineyard Avenue in Pleasanton, California.
