About Carneros
Carneros (meaning "rams" in Spanish) straddles both Napa and Sonoma counties at the northern edge of San Pablo Bay. The region's cool, windy conditions make it ideal for Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and sparkling wine production. Many of California's finest sparkling wine houses call Carneros home.
Climate
Cool and windy due to San Pablo Bay influence. Persistent afternoon winds moderate temperatures and reduce disease pressure while extending the growing season.
Terroir
Shallow clay soils over bedrock create naturally low-vigor vines. The challenging conditions produce small berries with concentrated flavors.
Perfect Pairings for Carneros Wines
