- The 2013 Cuvée Keltie is built around three single-vineyard wines: Walker Vine Hill, Obsidian, and Richards. Together, they produce a hedonistic wine that is agile and structured. The wine opens on the nose with black cherry, mole sauce, and dried rose petals. A velvety texture on the palate is framed with a balance of acid and tannin. Fermented with nearly 100% whole cluster and aged for 20 months in neutral barrels and 9 months in bottles before release, 2013 Cuvee Keltie showcases a stunning, well-built and incredibly intoxicating wine.
- Keltie is full-bodied with a saturated palate of mature tannin. Keltie represents Syrah's more brooding, savoury side with notes of dried orange peel, nettle tea, and petrichor. It has a solid structure that will age for over a decade.

Winery | For Joe Donelan's eldest daughter, Cuvée Keltie is all about old-world style using new-world fruit. The whole cluster is fermented mainly in old, neutral barrels. Cuvee Keltie is a blend of the best vineyard parcels and the best barrels of those vineyards: a dense, powerful wine, the mouthfeel results from patience and selection. Patience comes from nearly two years in a barrel, allowing for both flavour concentrations and tannin mellowing. An excellent charcuterie wine - a slice of prosciutto di Parma plus a sip of Cuvée Keltie is guaranteed to bring a smile to our faces! Cuvée Keltie is a blend of different vineyards in Sonoma County. The 2018 included Syrah from Kobler, Steiner Ranch, Obsidian and Richards Family vineyards. |
