Sweet strawberries from your local farmers market.

Thursday, July 15th, 2010

Last week we bought some strawberries from our local farmers market and they probably lasted less that 3 hours at home. So, this week we will be back out at Walnut Park in Petaluma (from 2-5PM) to get some more!

We all love Keller Estate Rosé!

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

 We all enjoy making Rosé and drinking good Rosé. Today Alder Yarrow was saying that many Rosés suck! And I have to agree with him: many times this wine is not made purposely. At Keller, we make our Rosé using 2 tons of Pinot Noir, gently allow the fruit to sit in the white press, […]

Keller Estate´s 2009 Harvest Compost.

Tuesday, March 9th, 2010

You eliminate biodiversity in agrculture by planting one type of plant, and one of the consequences is the depletion of minerals and nutrients used by that plant.

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

Crush has come to an end here at Keller Estate. It was an exciting year, with Jacqueline coming on board as our winemaker and our two interns, Dan & Biddy, joining us for the season. But all good things do come to an end, and our winery is looking more mellow as the days get […]

On the backside of the mountain

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

As our winemaker Jacqueline Yoakum would say, “we are on the backside of the mountain.” This weekend was incredibly busy for us here at Keller Estate. We brought in the last 16 tons or so of Chardonnay over the weekend, and although they were beautiful, ripe and ready to pick, the pressure was on to […]
