Pneu, Anderson Valley

Pneu Wines was founded by Scott Lewis (owner of V Wine Cellar in Yountville) and his friends Gary and Cheryl Van Brunt. Born in Limerick Ireland, Scott followed his chef and hotelier father’s footsteps. In 2007 he began Pneu Wines. During his time at the Arizona Biltmore he met Gary Van Brunt (now former CEO of Discount Tire). Gary told Scott that if he ever wanted to make wine he would be willing to partner with him. That became a reality in 2007 when Scott located a premium vineyard source in Anderson Valley (to the north of Napa in Mendocino County).
