Business Description
|
Schramsberg Vineyards is now being run by Jack and Jamie Davies youngest son, Hugh. Born in 1965, the year his parents Jack and Jamie Davies revived the historic Schramsberg Vineyards property in Napa Valley, Hugh was named president and CEO of the 40-year old sparkling wine house in 2005. Prior to this, he held the dual responsibilities of winemaker and general manager. He holds a master's degree in enology from the University of California, Davis, and has his undergraduate degree from Bowdoin College in Maine.
At Schramsberg, Hugh has led the ongoing effort to fine-tune winemaking and grape growing techniques, building upon the winery’s venerable track record of producing award-winning sparkling wines. Schramsberg’s current stable of vineyards includes more than 80 specially selected sites in the Carneros, the Anderson Valley, and along the Sonoma and Marin coasts. The winery's commitment to small lot base wine production has yielded extraordinary blending opportunity for the 8-10 sparkling blends produced each year. Over 200 lots are evaluated each year, representing many variables: vineyard, clone, vintage, barrel, stainless tank, malolactic fermentation, etc.
