Giving Back

The Rhone Rangers is a 501 c6 non-profit organization. The live and silent auctions help sustain the organization’s mission to advocate the American Rhone variety wines.

An integral part of the Rhone Rangers mission is to give back and cultivate new ambassadors for American Rhone wines. A portion of the monies raised during events and live and silent auctions go to support The Rhone Rangers Scholarship Fund.

Each year, a scholarship is awarded to an individual studying enology, viticulture or wine business with a planned career in the wine industry – all focused on Rhone varieties in America. With education and raised awareness, we can continue to bring attention to the fascinating and beautiful American Rhone wine movement. Thank you for supporting the Rhone Rangers.

Allan Hancock College Viticulture & Enology Department
