Walter Schug’s relationship with the Sangiacomo Family dates back nearly five decades to his days at Joseph Phelps Vineyards. To honor their hard-working family, we offer a single-grower bottling selected from three parcels which the Sangiacomo’s farm in the Sonoma Coast AVA. The Tallgrass and El Novillero Ranches surrounding our Estate in western Carneros, form the solid base for this blend. The wine’s richness is balanced by the raciness of the Federick vineyard located in the Petaluma Gap. The shallow rocky soils result in concentrated flavors and a firm, spicy structure. These wines are perfect for the collector’s cellar and will continue to age gracefully for up to 10 years,

Founded in 1980, Schug Carneros Estate Winery is the showcase and life-long dream of one of California’s most celebrated winemakers, Walter Schug. Family-owned and operated, the winery is a reflection of many decades of Schug family involvement in the production of fine wines in Europe and California; both Walter and his wife, Gertrud, came from distinguished winemaking families of Germany.
After creating many of the industry’s fine wine benchmarks at Joseph Phelps Vineyards, Walter Schug went on to pursue his lifelong passion; the fragile Pinot Noir grape. In order to capture the distinctive character of the finest French Burgundies, he chose the Carneros Appellation for the establishment of a 50-acre Estate vineyard and winery.
Nestled on a hilltop in the midst of their Estate Vineyard in Carneros, the winery exhibits the rich European heritage of the Schug family. The Post and Beam architecture reminiscent of the Rhine River Valley, and underground barrel-aging caves provide a uniquely European setting for the tasting of Schug’s fine Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs. The experience is enhanced by sweeping views of the Sonoma Valley and the San Francisco Bay.
The unique style of Schug Pinot Noir and Chardonnay captures traditional European values, where wine and food go hand in hand. Schug Carneros Estate Winery combines old-world understanding and tradition with the most advanced winemaking technology available today. By using only the finest grapes available in California, and maintaining traditional European winemaking values, these wines have gained acceptance worldwide as true contemporary classics. Today, the Schug legacy is carried on through children.

I prayed to the wine gods and they graced me with two bottles for a group of us to share. I thought to myself, who can I entice to buy more wine and possibly cause ruin to their financial freedom? Aw yes, Wifey’s coworker, the ones who just purchased our smaller 166bottle wine enthusiast fridge. I didn’t research the bottles that came in, just enough to know that it was appropriate enough to open at Echo and Rig Steakhouse and Butcher Shop Las Vegas. Not like it really mattered anyways because there’s no corkage fee. Our group was 4 people, I figured let’s make this an atypical lab report and just have fun with it and write down on this…where is my paper and pen, yall have room for dessert, whoa where did the bottles go?
As everyone else was chatting it up, I stared into my glass as if I was peering into the universe for the first time while taking down some fast notes on my phone. The first bottle we poured from; Schug Sangiacomo Vineyard 2018 Pinot Noir went great with appetizers. I felt this was ready to drink and noticed how frequent we kept coming back to our glasses for another sip. This stuff is gooood. We all felt this was very fruit forward, smooth, and with a drying finish. I thought it was on the heavier side for a Pinot. On the nose I got a good waft of strawberry and spices, on the mouth it was smooth, fresh cut strawberries, cherry, tobacco flavors, slightly savory and dry finish. The oak is detectable, but I am not sensitive to it, its medium finished and did I mention the smooth mouthfeel. I tried to let it open more, but I had a bowl of wild mushroom soup and wifey had some excellent bone marrow carne asada that kept us hooked on our glasses.
I had one glass of the 2018 reserved, Wifey’s… while I poured the Schug Sangiacomo Vineyard 2019 Pinot Noir for our main course. I ordered Colorado lamb porterhouse chops with an amazing apricots and potatoes concoction, wifey ordered the tie-dye salmon. Our couple with us had a hanger steak and a steak salad. We also shared a creamy white risotto with tomatoes. ANYWAYS, back to the 2019. We all agreed that this wine was much different, a bit hotter, with darker fruits or maybe not as bright as the 2018 was. | thought the nose on it was how I thought the 2018 tasted, fresh strawberry and spices. When it came down to the taste, it felt less heavy, more cherry and less strawberry, some of those spices from the nose, and finishes dry. The 14.3% alcohol is noticeable, and I feel it played a big factor as to why it was much different. I enjoyed the 2019 just as much as I did the 2018 with our entrees, and Wifey’s coworker who ordered the hanger seemed to really think it paired even better than the 2018.
Let’s get this rattage done with and your eyes a rest before you fall asleep reading this, though I wouldn’t recommend sleeping on this deal. We finished both bottles in a timeframe of 3 hours and wish I could have given the 2019 a bit more time. This was the fastest I had to review 2 bottles and being out of my normal setting sure made it exciting. Our guest Rat-ee’s are cab based drinkers and they were impressed with both of these Pinot Noir vintages. Heck I was impressed with it and if priced right, I will be ordering some. They both paired excellent with a variety of food and helped make one memorable night happen. I tried to take more pictures, but that waiter sure was sneaky. Thank you to the Wine gods for making this happen, it sure turned our great!
Sorry, but can I get an edit on the wine names? haha I copied it from screenshot of my computer and had to make a few corrections. I unfortunately missed the most important ones…it’s not Schuge or Schugg it’s meant to be Schug. Oops
@Winedavid49 lesson learned not to use copied text from a picture taken. Here I was thinking I was clever trying to get a typed report into my phone faster than just sending it to an email.
I actually want to spend some money on this crap site if only there were a few bottles that were worth spending money on. I thought this was a bargain site…
@onic That is an odd comment. Have you ever ordered from here? I have never regretted a purchase I have made. I don’t buy every offer, but I am more than a frequent flyer. It is not a crap site.
How much more are you saving by buying a full case?
(Note: tax and shipping are not included in savings calculations).
Schug Sangiacomo Vineyards Pinot Noir Mix - $60 = 16.66%
Ok…any pro thoughts? Can’t put a finger on the 94 point review referenced up top, but Food & Wine commented on the 2018:
Sourced from Fedrick Ranch in the Petaluma Gap, and Tallgrass and El Novillero in Sonoma Valley, this is a muscular, spicy, Pinot with tart cherry and blood orange, balanced acidity, and pretty earth notes. The winemaker today is German-born Johannes Scheid who is doing a remarkable job with the new releases! 8/21
A very non-pro and unscientific comment on the excellent rattage from @TechnoViking is that I’ve had a few '18’s and 19’s side by side (pinot) and find similar vintage differences, preferring the 2018’s. Another non-pro comment is although haven’t had these wines I’m a fan of Schug
So once again a lot of, probably too much of…
fwiw
Well, it certainly is more than I would spend on a bottle, which is why I rarely order wine at restaurants as, well, I’ve got better stuff at home for half the price. But … it is hard to resist the siren song of WineDavid and WineGirl, so in for a case.
Production: 5 cases magnums (6 x 1.5L).
Magnums, did someone say Magnums??? Where are you hiding these babies
Yeah, I’m a sucker for large format bottles
@davirom@rjquillin Let me know if there’s anything incoming. And of course you are always welcome to crash here.
davirom, I got the Bedrock in, so I’ve got 4 for you now.
@klezman@rjquillin Also recall that I have 3 bottles of the WineSmith grenache for each of you. As well as another 3 bottles for @Sekraan who I believe is in SD, if RJQ would be so kind as to get them closer to their rightful owner.
Gertrud Schug comes from the family that owns the winery that I served my apprenticeship at in Germany. I have always enjoyed the Schug wines as well as Walter and Auxel. I’m in.
Cheers,
Scott
I can’t resist the siren call of overwhelming “trust me, this is the good stuff” from the folks who know.
Sentimental “not a good reason to buy a case, but yolo” reason: my dog of 15 years just passed (named Sugar)! And Schug was her nickname. I know this is super sad but a dog companion for so long is an honor.
@jeckman223 it says it will be here Wednesday afternoon. I’ll let let you know if it is not. I’m at 1050 Baker St. near the Kaiser ER. What time were you thinking of coming by? I can work from home if need be. Or I can be home by 5pm.
I was thrilled to receive the nod as a lab rat for this
2019 Schug Sangiacomo Vineyards Pinot Noir
! It’s always fun to get the golden ticket and try a new wine I wouldn’t have known to try.
The punch line up front: I’d buy this!
Taste disclaimers: I like fuller bodied, petit syrah type red wine, but I do occasionally enjoy a more medium bodied wine.
It’s just starting to get warmer in NYC and we can finally sit in our little garden; last night we grilled some hanger steak with chimichurri and sat down outside with the wine after dinner for a nice quiet evening. This wine was a great accompaniment!
The wine had a nice garnet color, and on the nose was both spicy and fruity. It did feel hot with the alcohol at first but it blew off rather quickly. I felt this was a “bigger” pinot noir compared to others I have had in the past; it was still medium bodied I think but it just had more depth and didn’t feel thin like pinot noirs I’ve had and not enjoyed. My general impression was: this is good. I also felt it went very well with our meal and this is a wine that does well with red meat and potatoes.
After dinner we had another glass each to finish off the bottle. It seemed less hot (or, I was a bit tipsy and less sensitive). Really nice finish, good flavor forward pinot noir. Overall I enjoyed it and felt it was probably going to be a slightly higher price point wine. I will be buying some (waiting to see if the neighbor wants to split a case).
Per usual, I recruited a friend to have another person’s opinion and we used a De Long tasting note sheet as a framework to form the following notes.
Color depth: Medium
Color hue: Ruby
Clarity: Clear
Aroma intensity: Moderate
Development: Youthful
Aromas: Strawberry, black cherry, oak, pomegranate, and black pepper.
Dry/Sweet: Dry
Body: Medium
Acidity: Crisp
Tannins: Medium and soft
Balance: Good (great honestly)
Flavor intensity: Flavorful
Flavors: Strawberry, black cherry, raspberry, black pepper, and a slight bit of oak.
Finish: Medium
Conclusion:
This is a wonderful wine. Pinot Noir is one of the varietals I don’t drink much of since I tend to prefer bigger, bolder reds.
With that being said, I’d call this a perfect Pinot for people who think PN is too light. That’s not to say this PN is heavy, but it has a bold flavor profile while managing to remain delicate and elegant.
The wine was paired with pizza and honestly the pizza was just a bit too much for the wine. So I’d suggest enjoying the wine on its own or pairing it with lighter fare.
Many thanks to @schugwinery1 , @winedavid49 , @wccwinegirl and the entire Casemates crew for all the work you do. It’s much appreciated, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to be a Lab Rat. Cheers!

@klezman@Winedavid49 Yes it’s early April, and expected delivery is early May according to the offer… 82F here today and will be getting nothing other than warmer in the southeast…I’m on the South Carolina coast, just a tad north of Hilton Head …we’ve had this discussion before, I’d buy more here if weather holds were part of the business model, but they are not, and so be it
@klezman@Winedavid49 and as mentioned, two day summer shipping adjustment does make a difference, assuming that comes back. But right now that’s not in play
@kaolis@klezman@Winedavid49
Just had to have de Negoce eat an order as well.
Shipping FedEx to a UPS address without checking first is just beyond stupid, when temps are touching 80, and over a weekend as well!

@TechnoViking for someone who misspells, I can look beyond it!!! Love this rattage!!!
And this is a KILLER deal. You never see Sangiacomo wines discounted.
@Winedavid49 lesson learned not to use copied text from a picture taken. Here I was thinking I was clever trying to get a typed report into my phone faster than just sending it to an email.
@TechnoViking

@davirom @onic What do you expect from someone who’s apparently looking for 2-buck Chuck for a buck fifty?
@davirom @ddeuddeg @onic With the most recent pricing on it here, that’d be a 57% discount! Doesn’t change the drinkability though…
How much more are you saving by buying a full case?

Have to chime in here…this is the holy grail of offers. Schug is a PN power house and to have them producing PN wines from Sangiacomo vines???
WD’s comment after tasting the wine “FANTASTIC” fwiw
Happy Friday All.

Is someone interested on splitting a case in Las Vegas??? Or even 1/3???
@osmercontreras I will ask our new wine friends and see if they’re interested in a split and get back to you in the afternoon.
@TechnoViking excellent, let me know
@TechnoViking any news? Will you order it, I can probably find another person interested on the other 1/3
I too could show interest in a 1/3 case split should any others like the $25 over the $30 tariff.
@rjquillin are you located in Las Vegas???
@osmercontreras San Diego
@rjquillin I’m in for 1/3 of a case.
@accs Ok, done. 1/3 still available or/unless it’s just a 6/6 split.
@accs @rjquillin If they’re still available, I would take the last 4 bottles.
@accs @davirom Sure, now, I just need to make it up to LA area to clear out some space down here before I loose them.
@davirom @rjquillin Let me know if there’s anything incoming. And of course you are always welcome to crash here.
davirom, I got the Bedrock in, so I’ve got 4 for you now.
