In 1989, Melissa Moravec and her husband, Kurt Reaume, planted a seven-acre vineyard at their home in Napa Valley's half of the Carneros wine-growing region close to the San Francisco Bay. Because of the ideal climate for traditional Burgundian grapes, they planted eight different selections, or clones, of Pinot Noir. Casa Carneros, both the vineyard and the wine, reflect the beauty of the region, and the care and passion Melissa and Kurt have for wine. | |

Winemaker Mellissa Moravec |
Melissa Moravec studied Enology and Viticulture at U.C. Davis from 1981 to 1984, completing her undergraduate degree in 1983 and doing one year of graduate work in 1984. In 1983, she received the Department of Viticulture and Enology's Citation for Excellence for her work. She began her professional career at Carneros Creek Winery during the harvest of 1983 and became their winemaker in 1988. She initially came to Carneros Creek as a research enologist to supervise the Pinot Noir Clonal Research Project conducted in conjunction with the Department of Viticulture and Enology at U.C. Davis. The focus of the wines made at Carneros Creek is predominantly Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. However, over the years Melissa has had her hands on many different varietals from many different vineyards. | |
