Robert “Bob” Miller was an effective leader in the California wine community and a significant contributor to establishing the Central Coast as a premier winegrowing region of California.

Bob’s enthusiasm for building a world-class wine region will be perpetuated by investing in the future of young people from the Central Coast who want to make their career in the Central Coast grape and wine industry. Each year either a $500 (for Alan Hancock Community College) or a $1,000 (for Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo) scholarship will be awarded.
