From the vibrant streets of Mexico City to the rolling hills of Petaluma Gap, Arturo Keller lived a life of unwavering determination and visionary excellence. Born and raised in Mexico, he built a successful business, supplying seats to major car companies through sheer hard work and entrepreneurial spirit.

His greatest legacy was not in steel and leather, it was in soil and vine. With the courage to dream beyond borders, he transformed 650 acres of California hillside into a testament to Mexican heritage and cool-climate winemaking. He chose to name every wine in Spanish, proudly celebrating la hermosura de nuestra lengua.
Arturo understood that true excellence comes from honoring one's roots while creating something entirely new. A man who loved elegance and handcrafted wines, he knew that the finest things in life, like family and tradition, only grow more beautiful with time. His legacy continues, proving that with hard work and love, any dream can flourish.

Cuisines around the world use bold, vibrant spices that can be complex or intensely hot! Mexican cuisine offers incredible flavor diversity which we fully embrace as we develop recipes that create perfect wine pairings. Creating recipes for us means balancing rich spiciness in traditional mole to complement our estate Syrah, finding the right level of bright lime in fresh ceviche to showcase the minerality of our Oro de Plata Chardonnay, or adding silky avocado to enhance our La Cruz Chardonnay. We craft our Petaluma Gap wines to be food-friendly, always seeking that elegant balance that elevates both the dish and the wine.
