The Lexington Cancer Foundation, Inc. is honored to have Dr. Madaiah Revana of Revana Family Vineyards as Vintner Chair of our 2010 Kentucky Bluegrass Wine Auction. 

Located in the heart of Napa Valley, Revana Family Vineyard is a vineyard and winery estate focused on producing world-class Cabernet Sauvignon. For Dr. Madaiah Revana, it is the culmination of his dream to grow and craft wines of exceptional quality.

In 1997, while visiting the Napa Valley, Dr. Revana discovered a small parcel of prime vineyard land just north of the town of St. Helena. He immediately sensed the property’s potential. The area was already known for producing some of the world’s most sought after Cabernet Sauvignon, and the property’s gravelly soils, sloped pitch, and excellent exposures seemed perfect for growing grapes. Studies of the soil composition confirmed that it was an ideal location for premium Bordeaux varieties. His next step was to build a team that could implement his vision.

The Kentucky Bluegrass Wine Auction will be held on Thursday, April 29, 2010 at Keeneland Race Course.  Visit the ‘Wine Auction’ section of this site for more information about the auction.  To learn more about Revana Family Wines, go to http://www.revanawine.com
