Description

This item includes a gift certificate for a tour and tasting for up to ten people at the Keller Estates. 

Owned by the Keller family, Keller Estate Winery and Vineyards is nestled in the Sonoma Coast and specializes in creating artisan, handcrafted Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Syrah.

Originally founded by Arturo and Deborah Keller, today Keller Estate is directed by Ana Keller, Arturo Keller's daughter. A commitment to aesthetics, quality and elegance have defined the way of life at Keller Estate and resulted in outstanding wines from the region.

They are the southernmost winery in the Sonoma Coast appellation and the first to establish ourselves in the Petaluma Valley. The terroir at Keller Estate is defined by the Petaluma Gap and is subject to two major maritime influences. The San Pablo Bay lies immediately to the south, while to the northwest is an opening in the coastal hills which allows masses of fog to flow freely towards the Petaluma Valley. This geographical signature is unique and creates a cool and long growing season for their vineyards. Keller Estate's Pinot Noir grows particularly beautifully in these foggy conditions.

The estate is comprised of a large acreage of rangeland, olive groves, gardens, and vineyards. The Petaluma River runs no more than a stone's throw from the western border of the property which rises from the sea level to over 500 feet in elevation through spectacular series of hills. Views from the property are magnificent.
The panorama includes Mount Diablo and Tamalpais, Angel Island, the city of San Francisco, the Valley of the Moon, and far Western Sonoma.

 

This is a Live Event Item.
