    Fenestra Winery was established by the Replogle family on the historic Ruby Hill property and in 1980, occupied the century-old George True Winery building on Vallecitos Rd. The old building had been badly neglected, and the Replogles spent several years restoring it, installing a new roof, strengthening the building and eventually added solar panels.

    After leasing the building for 27 years, the Replogles purchased the 16.6 acre property in June, 2007. The property includes the estate vineyards (1.3 acres Mourvedre, 4.5 acres of Syrah and newly planted Grenache), the winery building, the beautiful creek, huge old oak trees and picnic grounds.

    The winery specializes in classically balanced, award-winning wines from primarily Livermore Valley grapes. Livermore Valley's first boutique winery, Fenestra has been producing wines since 1975.
