The report also seeks to define a tourism strategy that can improve the competitive position of Tri Valley over the long term. The report identifies several key challenges including the lack of perception the region has as a destination and that it is seen by some to be a series of communities. Additionally, the areas have significant differences between them. For example, Livermore, with its downtown area and wineries, is a very different experience to San Ramon, which generates a significant level of corporate travel. Moving forward Tri-Valley needs to consider three specific steps with regard to its assets. 1. Continue to build its brand assets in order to create value for all of the areas within the region.

  • Murrieta's Well: Historical Timeline
    MURRIETA’S WELL: HISTORICAL TIMELINE 1850s Joaquin Murrieta, a legendary bandito, roams California during the Gold Rush era. Murrieta earns a reputation and a livelihood rounding up cattle and horses that then ran wild in the California open range, driving them down to Mexico to sell to the Mexican Army, a very lucrative business. Larger than life for these escapades and for taking revenge against American miners who assaulted his wife and killed his brother, Murrieta’s reputation spreads as far south as Chile. During his crusades he set up base camps up and down the coast range. Murrieta and his men often stopped to water their horses at an artesian well bubbling up from the floor of the Livermore Valley at the base of the Arroyo Mocho, today the site of Murrieta’s Well Winery. 1870s Louis Mel, pioneering businessman, emigrates from France to the United States, setting up insurance agencies all over the west from Canada to Mexico. During his travels, Mel falls in love with the Livermore Valley in California. There, Mel buys a charming property with a flowing stream and an artesian well the locals call “Murrieta’s Well.” Mel’s discovery of this natural source of water and the unusually gravelly soil capture his attention due to its likeness to some of greatest vineyard sites in France. Mel buys the surrounding land and builds a gravity-flow winery into the hillside adjacent to the well, where the century old walls of river rock and cement still stand. 1880s In 1884, Louis Mel’s wife writes a letter to her childhood friend, the wife of the Marquis de Lur-Saluces at the famous Chateau d’Yquem in Bordeaux, introducing fellow Livermore Valley pioneer Charles Wetmore.

  • The Viticultural Districts of the Livermore Valley AVA
    The Viticultural Districts of the Livermore Valley AVA by Patrick L Shabram Copyright ©2018, 2019 Prepared by Patrick L Shabram for the Livermore Valley Winegrowers Association ALL RIGHTS RESERVED The Viticultural Districts of the Livermore Valley AVA Summary The Livermore Valley AVA is diverse in topography, soil, and as a result of Pacific airflow into the region, climate. The Livermore Valley Winegrowers Association has commissioned a soils report and a climate report to better understand this diversity. Utilizing the results of the climate and soils reports, this report outlines twelve viticultural districts within the Livermore Valley AVA. Background The Livermore Valley AVA (27 CFR Part 9 §9.46) was created in 1982 and amended in 2006 to recognize the unique viticulture of the inland East Bay area of the San Francisco Bay Area. The AVA occupies sections of the Diablo Range in southern Contra Costa and eastern Alameda counties, including the Amador, Livermore, and San Ramon valleys (often referred to as the Tri-Valley area). The Diablo Range is a subset of the greater Coastal Ranges. The AVA is characterized by a combination of diverse topography and transitional climate, which creates diverse growing conditions within the AVA. Despite its inland location, which is not adjacent to any bodies of water, the climate of the Livermore Valley AVA is greatly influenced by Pacific airflow that moderates temperatures relative to warmer inland locations to the east. This airflow enters the AVA in several locations, complicating the temperature patterns in the AVA. Further complicating the climate is elevation, which ranges from approximately 160 feet to 3,848 feet in the area.
