At CF Napa Brand Design, we've spent nearly 50 years setting the standard for alcohol beverage branding. Led by our Owner and Creative Principal, David Schuemann, for the past 22 years, we focus on translating brand ethos visually, never using a one-size-fits-all approach for our projects. The result is a bespoke solution rooted in strategy and, most importantly, a design that sells.

Our expertise lies in the intricacies of our process - from project conception to conclusion, our team brings a strategic yet thoughtful eye to every detail. We understand the market and target audiences on a global stage. We balance listening with leading to execute a design that our clients love and their consumers will buy again and again. Our philosophy is simple: we believe that visuals profoundly impact the decision-making process and consumer perception, especially when it comes to alcohol beverages. We drink with our eyes.
