Our ‪#‎CWAMemberMonday‬ has quite the origin story. Walter and Gertrud Schug were raised on German wine estates and they met, fell in love and married in 1961. Less than a month later they packed their bags (and a VW bug) and took a boat to New York to explore the American world of wine and entrepreneurship. They opened their famed Schug Carneros Estate Winery in 1980 to focus on producing world class Pinot Noir.

Carneros Wine Alliance
The Carneros Wine Alliance is a non-profit association of wineries and grape-growers in the Carneros American Viticultural Area (AVA).  Carneros is the only appellation located at the crossroads of two major wine regions, the Napa and Sonoma Valleys.  Influenced by the maritime breezes and fog from its southern border with the San Pablo Bay, Carneros produces the region’s finest Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and sparkling wines. The Carneros Wine Alliance is committed to promoting the distinction, diversity and above all, quality, of the grapes and wines from Carneros.
