PLEASANTON, CA-The Pleasanton city council will consider tonight an agreement with a developer and property owner to restore the Ruby Hill winery.

Wente Brothers is now proposing a plan that would allow them to rebuild the winery and use the building for storage space and tasting room, eventually a complete operating winery.
