[edit] Wineries in Oakville AVA

Some of these deserve their own articles:--Kharker 18:03, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Cardinale Estate Cloud View Vineyards Cosentino Winery Dalla Valle Vineyard Detert Family Vineyards Downing Family Vineyards Emilio's Terrace Vineyard Far Niente

Franciscan Oakville Estate Gargiulo Vineyards Girard Winery Groth Vineyards Harlan Estate Heitz Wine Cellars Kelham Vineyards Long Vineyards

Miner Family Vineyards Nickel & Nickel Robert Mondavi Winery Oakville Ranch Oakford Vineyards Opus One Winery Paradigm Winery PlumpJack Winery

Rudd Winery Saddleback Wineyards Screaming Eagle Winery Showket Vineyards Silver Oak Winery Stanton Vineyards Turnbull Wine Cellars Vine Cliff Vineyards

I agree and it is a good call to move the list here. I should have done that. It would make sense to move them to the article list as they get created. The more that I think about it, its actually a really good idea to compose such a list on the talk pages of more of the AVA articles. It will keep the articles cleaner and can serve a benefit of highlighting some of the wineries (like Silver Oak and Screaming Eagle) that need an article.
