A high-quality Pinot Noir made from grapes from our own vineyard, La Cruz Vineyard.

Petaluma Gap is subject to constant strong winds, which causes the grapes to thicken their skins to protect the seeds.

The result is a wine with a structured style, but by cold soaking for five days, its character is brought out in a balanced way, resulting in a style that expresses the unique individuality of the land.

The Mexican family Keller's vineyards are located in the southern Sonoma Coast, in an area called "Petaluma Gap" (designated a sub-AVA in 2017), a unique piece of land created by the unique topography and strong ocean breezes.

Cold, strong sea breezes flow in from the Pacific Ocean to the north, and cold fog from San Pablo Bay to the south flows in from night to morning, protecting the vineyards from excessive sunlight and high temperatures, producing grapes with rich acidity and structure.

Since pioneering in this area in the 1980s, the estate has continued to produce wines that are superbly balanced, combining power and complexity.

It is very rare for a Mexican to become a winery owner in California, so Keller's existence gives dreams to Mexican immigrants living in California.
