Published 11/28/2001

The University of California-Davis, the world leader in wine science, will be spending $25 million of a $35 million grant to build the new Robert Mondavi Institute for Wine and Food Science. Replacing buildings 50 years old, the institute will house classrooms, food processing and winery buildings. The remaining $10 million will fund a theater complex already under construction, to be named the Robert and Margrit Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts. The center is slated for completion in October 2002.
