Our Land
We purchased a mature 10 year old Vineyard in 2017 and built our new home on the property in 2018. Local Ramona wineries have purchased our Sangiovese, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot for years. In 2021, we decided to go down the road of making our own wine and are making good progress with the talents of local winemakers. In 2022 we completed our winery barn agricultural building and we’re now remodeling the barn into our winery and tasting patio. We hope to open in the fall of 2025 or spring 2026. We expanded our vineyard in the spring of 2023 adding three additional varietals, Montepulciano, Grenache and Tempranillo. We now have two Italian, two French and two Spanish varietals that are estate grown and will work with other nearby vineyards to supply additional varietals as needed.
One of the founding vineyards of the Ramona AVA; featuring in Sangiovese, Sangiovese Grosso, Cabernet, Viognier and one of few vineyuards in Califonia growing Aglianico.
When our kids completed high school and ‘left the nest’ for college, the countryside beckoned, and we moved to Ramona in October, 2019. When we saw a secluded hilltop home in Ramona, compete with a small vineyard it was love at first sight. With the previous owners of the property having moved overseas, our approx. 300 Cabernet Sauvignon vines were in need of some love, and ever since we’ve been working hard to look after and improve the health of these vines, which are around 10 years old. It’s been a steep learning curve, with knowledge gained from grape growing friends, Ramona Valley Vineyard Association (RVVA), taking a vineyard management class, books, SNS, etc., and although challenging, it has been a most enjoyable journey.
Just a little background about myself. I am Japanese, I was born in Japan, but since graduating college, I mainly lived outside of Japan due to my work. My husband is British and we have two grown-up kids. We moved to the US in 2009 due to my husband’s work. We have two dogs; Nocino (rescue Mutt) and Tartufo (Spinone Italiano). Both are doing great as vineyard guard dogs, and have contributed to the name of this magical place which is “Tartino vineyards”. Tartino being a combination of “TARTufo” and “nocINO”.
My current goal is to grow healthy, high quality grapes. Wine making may follow, likely when my husband retires, and I can imagine this peaceful and private place as a hidden spot for people to get together and enjoy the spectacular views over a glass of wine.
Welcome to Tartino Vineyards.
We are a family owned vineyard & winery which was established in 2015 in Ramona, California. We are inspired to produce exceptional wine while we keep our environmental impact the least and farm in a sustainable way
Bearing Fruit Vineyard is an 8.5 acre farm, with 1908 vines planted on 3 acres of that land. The vineyard produces an abundance of quality Malbec, Sangiovese and Petite Sirah wine grapes.
Our goal for the vines is an emphasis on quality, minimal intervention to allow the grapes to express the “terroir”, and a hands-on approach to farming.
The vision for Bearing Fruit Vineyard is for it to operate as a charitable, retirement endeavor. We will nurture the grapes to each harvest and arrange for their sale to select local wineries. At that point, 100% of the funds each year are directed to the Bearing Fruit Foundation and various charitable endeavors. This project supplements Frank & Karen Allen’s other annual /primary contributions to the Bearing Fruit Foundation.

At Las Glorias de María Vineyards we showcase some of Spain’s great native wine varietals known around the world like Tempranillo, Garnacha, Monastrell and Cariñena. We will also introduce some rare Spanish varietals exclusively grown in our vineyards such as Verdejo, Godello, Viura, Mencia, Graciano and Pedro Ximénez. It is the belief at Las Glorias de María Vineyards, Ramona can too make world class wine with varietals which can live up to the intense Ramona summers. Our vineyards are all planted and maintained old world style, Head Trained with no trellis systems. We acknowledge there are more efficient methods of developing and maintaining vineyards but we also believe vines planted in the traditional manner contribute to the uniqueness of the wines. We have dedicated our vineyards to our heritage. Spain and Mexico were navigated by our family over centuries and ultimately ended up in San Diego, California. The name of our vineyard is in honor of our mother, aunt and sister who carried on the legacy of our family but whose lives were cut short by cancer. Future partial proceeds will be donated to the fight against cancer.

🌿 Vineyard à la Terre
Ramona, California
It all began on a trip to the South of France, where we fell in love with the land, the light, and the way everything seemed to grow with intention — grapes, lavender, olives… and memories.
We began searching for a piece of land in Southern California that echoed the magic of Provence. After much dreaming and wandering, we found it tucked in the rolling hills of Ramona, where the sun, soil, and sea-kissed air felt just right.
We planted French grape varietals, fragrant rows of lavender, and olive trees not just to grow, but to bring a little of that French countryside spirit to our everyday life.
Every bottle, every bloom, every branch is a tribute to that dream. From our hands to yours, thank you for being part of our story.
— With love, from the land —
