Kristine Schug, Chef

Kristine Schug grew up in the Napa Valley where she was introduced to good food and wine early on. Since graduating from UC Davis, she has worked at several Californian restaurants and wineries, and in 1993 she joined the rest of the Schug family in her role as the Winery Chef. Kristine is now a full time mother of two, but still manages to cater for special events at the winery and has created over one hundred recipes to pair with Schug wines.
