Explore Carneros Wineries
Those familiar with Northern California Wine Country, know of Carneros, as it is the only American Viticultural Area (A.V.A.) that is in both Napa and Sonoma counties. Located approximately 40 miles northeast of San Francisco, the Carneros Region’s moderate climate is created by fog, moist air, and cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean. Protected from harsh weather by the Coastal Range, Carneros summer days are warm with cool nights and winters are mild. As a result, grapes stay on the vine longer, reaching high acidity and full flavor development.
