Schug Sonoma Pinot Noir
$36.99
Walter Schug’s connection to winemaking traces back to his family’s heritage in Germany’s Rheingau region. In the 1920s, his father started producing Pinot Noir from the iconic Assmannshausen Höllenberg vineyard, which was originally planted in the 12th century. This early exposure to vineyards and winemaking played a significant role in shaping Walter’s passion for crafting Pinot Noir. In 1959, after receiving his degree in viticulture and enology from Geisenheim University, Walter left Germany for a winemaking internship in Delano, California. At the end of his internship, his supervisor was so impressed with his skills and dedication that he was offered the position of the retiring assistant winemaker. After stints at some of Napa's best wineries, his love for pinot noir led to the decision to establish his own label. When Phelps Winery ceased production of this variety, Walter saw an opportunity to channel his passion and expertise into crafting outstanding pinot noir wines. This move allowed him to express his unique style and approach to winemaking. In 1980, he finally opened his own winery in Carneros, setting the stage for a long and respected career.
