Refreshing Sonoma Wines
Chardonnay & Saint Laurent - crafted with clarity, balance, and purpose.
Sonoma is not just where these wines are grown - it is how they are lived.
Kelter Wines is a small Sonoma project focused on fresh, balanced wines made for the table.
This is not about weight or excess. It is about clarity, restraint, and wines that feel natural with a meal, a place, and a moment.
Ricci Vineyard
Ricci Vineyard in Carneros looks out over San Pablo Bay.
Cool mornings and steady coastal air shape the wines here—keeping them fresh, balanced, and precise.
This is where our Chardonnay and Saint Laurent find their edge.
Saint Laurent
Saint Laurent is a specialty at Kelter Wines—and a rare find in California.
Grown at Ricci Vineyard in Carneros, it brings together Old World character and Sonoma freshness.
Lighter in style, with bright fruit, soft spice, and natural balance, and known to have an excellent aging ability.
Our story
Kelter Wines, Cavalière Claire, and Elevated Surface were created in loving memory of Claire Daniels, whose vibrant spirit and deep love for horses continue to inspire us. Each label is a tribute to her strength, warmth, and the way she lived life with purpose and joy.
That dedication defines how these wines are made - clear, balanced, and never overworked. A focus on what matters, without overcomplicating.
These wines are meant to be opened, shared, and returned to.
To honor Claire’s legacy, we donate $1.00 from every bottle sold to the Delta Gamma Claire Daniels Memorial – Sisters Helping Sisters Scholarship, supporting young women as they pursue higher education and reach for elevated goals in their academic journeys.
At Kelter Wines, we’re proud to be part of something that helps others rise, remember, and celebrate.
Our Wines
Chardonnay
A fresh, coastal-style Chardonnay shaped by long, cool growing seasons in the Carneros region of Sonoma. Bright acidity, Clean structure, and built for food.
Saint Laurent
At the center of Kelter Wines. A lighter, fresher red - created on balance, not weight. Bright fruit and spice, and versatile at the table. We enjoy this wine slightly cooled.
The Northern California Coast
Tomales Bay
Tomales Bay sits just west of Sonoma—close enough for the day, far enough to feel like a shift.
Oysters, open air, and a fresh glass of Chardonnay.
