Cuvée Keltie 2016, 75cl

Sonoma County, Califórnia

Donelan

Cuvée Keltie is a direct result of careful study in the vineyard. Identifying subtle changes in terroir and personality in the vineyard allows our team to isolate a few sections of vineyards – sometimes just a few rows or the top of a hill and often in increments of one or two tons. Optimal ripening in these sections, combined with large percentages of total grapes, creates a wine that we like.
80% of the grapes fermented in small batches without new oak and 22 months of élevage (the French term for the progression of wine from fermentation to bottling.

Donelan Family Wines

Donelan Family Wines is a boutique winery based in Sonoma, specializing in the production of Syrah, Grenache, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Roussanne, and Viognier. From the very beginning, the winery has prioritized quality above all else. The goal is simple: every wine should taste great — every vintage, every grape. This commitment is the team’s highest priority and driving force.

The winery is located in Santa Rosa, where a small and devoted team works with passion to make Donelan one of Sonoma’s benchmarks for top-tier Syrah, also known for its exclusive private tastings.

The Founder: Joe began his wine journey in the 1980s, inspired by a sommelier at Toppers Restaurant in Nantucket. His growing passion soon led him to California, where he founded what is now known as Donelan Family Wines. For Joe, exceptional wine creates a personal connection to the land, to nature, and to the people behind each bottle. He personally calls every new customer and handwrites thank-you notes for each order — whether it’s a single bottle or ten cases.

“We believe you should be passionate about what you do. That’s why our wines are a celebration of life — in every glass.”
