Our Story
Korbin Kameron, Moonridge Vineyard is a family endeavor. On a drive through the Sonoma Valley, we - Jenny and myself along with our children Kristin, Korbin and Kameron - came upon a homestead hovering high above the valley floor, so high that the land lived above the clouds. The house looked over acres and acres of rolling hills, wild with nature. And in that idyllic scene, we saw our dream of working together and creating quality wines from our estate grown grapes coming to life.
After many years of planning, turning, planting and nurturing the land, we reaped our first harvest and Moonridge Vineyard was born. Our wine brand, Korbin Kameron, is named after my two twins. The vineyard, located on a 186 acre property on Mount Veeder, embodies the best trait of each member of my family: know-how, determination, creativity, vision, compassion and exuberance. Though we are new to the enterprise of winemaking, we have relied upon their acumen and experience in business and fashion to craft quality Bordeaux varietal wines and create lasting family memories.
One of our greatest strengths is to find the expertise and experience of others like a great vineyard manager, Phil Coturri, as well as an experienced veteran winemaker, Timothy Milos, and craft it so that it fits our vision of quality. Most importantly, we learn and grow together.
Mitchell Ming
Proprietor
The first time Mitch saw the beautiful 180 acre property on top of Mt. Veeder, he fell in love with the land. He first started drinking Californian wines in the 1970s and knew he wanted to make wine after his first trip to the wine country. He is constantly making improvements upon the vineyard including look out points and a koi pond. With the help of Timothy Milos & Phil Coturri, the vineyard is now producing great wines for years to come.

General Manager | Viticulturist | Winemaker
Korbin received his B.S. from Boston University in Hospitality Management and established the brand's e-commerce and distribution markets. He gravitated towards wine production after spending time in the vineyard and cellar, which led him to gain his Master's Degree in Viticulture & Enology from UC Davis. He worked harvests for Derenoncourt Consultants in Bordeaux, Shakeridge Vineyard in the Sierra Foothills and finally Spottswoode Winery in Napa before returning back to join the Korbin Kameron team.
