Hill Top Winery History
The Schimpf family purchased the ranch in 2006 with the intention of enjoying the country life after a career of creating successful businesses and building throughout California. This began the journey into farming and the art of winemaking.
Shortly after purchasing the ranch, the Schimpf family established HTR, LLC which stands for Hill Top Ranch, one of the founding ranches in Valley Center area. The owners decided to plant Cabernet and Merlot grapes on the northern facing five-acre section of the property partly due to its great pairing of the soil composition and limited water needs, but mostly due to their enjoyment of wine blends.
January 16, 2013 Hill Top Winery’s administrator permit was issued which authorizes an increase in the allowed area of certain detached accessory agricultural structure buildings. This was one of many steps taken to move forward with the owner’s vision to expand the wine facilities production capacity and maximize the potential of the vines already in the ground.
January 17 2017 our Tasting room and event center was build opened.
We are new to the business’, recently planting 1.5 acres of Cabernet. We are looking for contacts to help us manage and distribute our grapes in San Luis Valley (Bonsall).

What began as a hobby turned into something more. The adventure began when Mike’s daughter, Cassie, decided to get married at Cordiano Winery in 2008. Its Italian owner convinced Mike to plant some vines. A few vines turned into 3,000 vines. Mike soon realized he needed help. That’s when he recruited his son-in-law Nelson to join him. For three years, they spent most days in the vineyard, caring meticulously for each vine. Soon after, Mike and Nelson built a 1,600 square foot cellar to store the wine he anticipated. From the beginning, Mike and Nelson realized they needed advice on every aspect of growing, harvesting, and fermenting their grapes. They sought the counsel of neighbors with established vineyards, among them, Cactus Star Vineyard, Highland Hills Winery and Kohill Winery. The owners shared their valuable knowledge and answered endless questions, ultimately empowering Nelson to turn their hobby focused grapes into award-winning wines.

Nestled in Highland Valley on the west end of Ramona we started our vineyard in 2010 — 4 years after we moved into the house we built. As native San Diegans, we love the outdoors and landscapes of Ramona. We have learned a lot about growing grapes; the saying is true that “you can’t make good wine with bad grapes”. We’ve spent a lot of time learning from other vintners how to create a healthy vineyard. Our move into wine making was a natural progression for us; investing and learning from fellow vintners in the Ramona valley.

Monserate Winery began with a desire to preserve the beauty and integrity of Gird Valley. For 56 years, the beautiful 116-acre property was a public golf course, dotted with 100-year-old oaks and towering sycamore trees. After falling on hard times, the golf course closed. We had a vision to revitalize the land and create something incredible that would also enrich the lives of the surrounding community, and thus, Monserate Winery was born. We have been hard at work to bring this vision to life since 2016 and have made a lot of progress. Today, Monserate Winery boasts breathtaking vineyards, tranquil lakes and spectacular scenery. As we continue to grow and expand our operations, we stay true to our original vision:
COMMITMENT
Strive for excellence in everything we do.
CONSERVATION
Preserve the beauty and integrity of the land.
COMMUNITY
Give back to our neighbors, near and far.

After rebuilding, multiple factors contributed to the decision to remove most of the damaged avocado tress and replace them with grape vines.
Andy studied Viticulture and Enology as an undergraduate at U.C. Davis in 1977 during his pre-veterinary studies.
As an undergraduate, his dorm building also housed students with family names like Heitz and Phelps. (Those guys brought some pretty good wine to the parties!)

Overlooking the beautiful Highland Valley of Ramona there are about 4 acres of grapes that enjoy the breeze, which blows most of the day.
The Aglianico grape, (pronounced “A-ya-nicoâ€), originated from the word Hellenic, Ellenico in Italian, means, “from Greece.†Around the 1500ad its name transformed to Aglianico. In Italy, Aglianico is considered the Barolo of the south.
Our Aglianico grapes were first planted in early 2007. Approximately, 2000 vines were planted both on the east and west sides of the vineyard. Followed, was the Nebbiolo, planted only on the east side.
In 2008 and 2011 we added the Aleatico grapes. We produce two kinds of wines from this grape: a dry wine and sweet dessert wine, both with incredible aromas.
We produce a small amount of the dessert wine by using the ancient method, using sun-dried Aleatico grapes with 40% brix.
Wikipedia claims that, “Aleatico may very well be the most ancient wine grape.â€
Before the Romans times, the Greek settlers brought the first Aglianico grapes to Naples, Italy (Nea Polis or New City). From there, because of its particular characteristics, the Romans adopted the grape to make the very first commercial wine, the Falerno and exported it in the whole Roman world.
Recent studies that were made on the skin of the Aglianico grapes, have shown unique preserving capabilities.
The Nebbiolo is a grape mostly grown in the northern Italian region of Piemonte.
From the Nebbiolo grapes, the Barolo wine is made and it is one of the most coveted Italian wines.

Some 18 months of oak aging adds elements of dark spice and smoke; and the wine shows firm tannins and a long, polished mouthfeel. It’s very elegant and should withstand many more years of cellar aging.

Hill Top Winery History
The Schimpf family purchased the ranch in 2006 with the intention of enjoying the country life after a career of creating successful businesses and building throughout California. This began the journey into farming and the art of winemaking.
Shortly after purchasing the ranch, the Schimpf family established HTR, LLC which stands for Hill Top Ranch, one of the founding ranches in Valley Center area. The owners decided to plant Cabernet and Merlot grapes on the northern facing five-acre section of the property partly due to its great pairing of the soil composition and limited water needs, but mostly due to their enjoyment of wine blends.
January 16, 2013 Hill Top Winery’s administrator permit was issued which authorizes an increase in the allowed area of certain detached accessory agricultural structure buildings. This was one of many steps taken to move forward with the owner’s vision to expand the wine facilities production capacity and maximize the potential of the vines already in the ground.
January 17 2017 our Tasting room and event center was build opened.

What began as a hobby turned into something more. The adventure began when Mike’s daughter, Cassie, decided to get married at Cordiano Winery in 2008. Its Italian owner convinced Mike to plant some vines. A few vines turned into 3,000 vines. Mike soon realized he needed help. That’s when he recruited his son-in-law Nelson to join him. For three years, they spent most days in the vineyard, caring meticulously for each vine. Soon after, Mike and Nelson built a 1,600 square foot cellar to store the wine he anticipated. From the beginning, Mike and Nelson realized they needed advice on every aspect of growing, harvesting, and fermenting their grapes. They sought the counsel of neighbors with established vineyards, among them, Cactus Star Vineyard, Highland Hills Winery and Kohill Winery. The owners shared their valuable knowledge and answered endless questions, ultimately empowering Nelson to turn their hobby focused grapes into award-winning wines.

Monserate Winery began with a desire to preserve the beauty and integrity of Gird Valley. For 56 years, the beautiful 116-acre property was a public golf course, dotted with 100-year-old oaks and towering sycamore trees. After falling on hard times, the golf course closed. We had a vision to revitalize the land and create something incredible that would also enrich the lives of the surrounding community, and thus, Monserate Winery was born. We have been hard at work to bring this vision to life since 2016 and have made a lot of progress. Today, Monserate Winery boasts breathtaking vineyards, tranquil lakes and spectacular scenery. As we continue to grow and expand our operations, we stay true to our original vision:
COMMITMENT
Strive for excellence in everything we do.
CONSERVATION
Preserve the beauty and integrity of the land.
COMMUNITY
