In this episode of "The Good Stuff" presented by the Sonoma County Winegrowers, hosts Virginie Boone and Karissa Kruse talk to Amy Chenowith, Winemaker & Owner of Chenoweth Wines, and her son Charlie “CJ” Chenoweth, Vineyard Operations Manager and sixth-generation farmer of Chenoweth Vineyards.

Amy shares her journey from growing up in Guerneville with no roots in wine to co-founding a vineyard management company with her husband Charlie and eventually diving into the craft of winemaking and launching a brand of her own. CJ, raised on the family ranch, knew early on that he wanted to follow in the family’s farming footsteps and now plays a key role in growing premium fruit for both their own label and dozens of top wineries.

Together, Amy and CJ dive into the Chenoweth family’s 170+ years of farming in Sonoma County—from redwood logging and cherry orchards to planting some of today’s most celebrated Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vineyards, including Treehouse and Bootlegger’s Hill. They reflect on the family legacy, long-standing partnerships with producers like Patz & Hall and Kosta Browne, and the stories that define their family's legacy and brand.

And finally, Virginie and Karissa share their Tuesday Night wine picks!
