The 2017 vintage contains Syrah hand-selected from Kobler Vineyard in Green Valley, Steiner Ranch in Bennett Valley, Obsidian Vineyard in Knights Valley Judge Vineyard and Cardiac Hill Vineyard. The Cuvée Keltie is a remarkable wine and a great example of site selection and careful attention in the cellar. The barrel selection for Cuvée Keltie has continued to produce a structured and rich wine without being ponderous. With no new oak used in the process, the mouthfeel results from patience and selection. Patience comes from nearly two years in the barrel, which allows for the concentration of flavours and the mellowing of tannin.
