A Paso Robles start-up is breaking into the region’s wine industry by creating custom wine bottle labels printed directly on glass.

Peltier Glassworks was founded recently by Adam and Marisa Peltier, a husband-and-wife team who both graduated from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. It’s the only glass silk screening company on the Central Coast, Adam Peltier said.
