About Us

Ru Vango loosely translates to “Road to Art”. Keeping this at our very heart we craft our wine starting in our Vineyards. We have two locations in the Napa Valley Region: Spring Mountain & Carneros. We boast our ability to farm the land and let the terroir speak through our wine. Our estate wines include Pinot Noir & Chardonnay grown in our Carneros Vineyard and Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, & Merlot grown in our Spring Mountain Vineyard.

Our owners are American entrepreneurs and philanthropists, originally from Vietnam.

They fell in love with the land and have started making something special in each bottle produced.

Our Winery

Ru Vango Winery Tasting Room is located in Napa Valley in the Carneros AVA. The Carneros District is the southernmost grape-growing region in Napa Valley. The fog and evening breezes off nearby San Pablo Bay make the Carneros AVA the coolest wine producing region in the valley, ideal for growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

We offer a curated collection of fine art exclusively featured in our art gallery provided by Winn Slavin Fine Art Beverly Hills. Each piece is handcrafted by Sir Daniel Winn. His unique “existential surrealism style profoundly communicates the inherent dichotomy between reality and perception between the physical and spiritual realm. His technical proficiency sets him apart from other contemporary artists. Come join us and experience this journey yourself!

Our second property is located in the Spring Mountain District. Ru Vango purchased the facility where The Guilliams family has been operating their Spring Mountain Facility since 1979. Located above 2,000 feet, it has seven acres of vines. Ru Vango Winery will be producing its high-end limited production out of Spring Mountain.

History

Ru Vango Winery estate has a rich history involving the Mondavi Family & the Mahoney Family. Mahoney, some call the “godfather of Pinot clones”, originally planted the Carneros property formerly known as Carneros Creek Winery in 1972. He believed that different clones would thrive over others in the soil types found in the Carneros AVA. We still have these very clones planted on our property. Michael Mondavi purchased Carneros Creek Winery from Mahoney in 2004 and held the facility until 2014.
