Kalin Cellars is a small winery located in Marin County, California which produces 5,000 cases per year of wine made by completely traditional European methods. These time and labor intensive procedures severely limit the quantity - but not the quality - of wine that we are able to produce.

Red wines are fermented for several weeks in wooden "cuves" and aged in new French oak barrels. These wines are neither fined or filtered - they are naturally clarified and stabilized by settling and aging in small cooperage.

White wines are fermented and aged in new French oak barrels. These wines receive the minimum of fining to achieve brilliance and stability and are bottled without filtration.

Vineyard sources are selected based on the superiority of the soil type and their being situated in the coolest possible microclimate suitable for the variety being grown. Due to the high natural acids present in cool climate fruit, all red and white wines are able to undergo complete malolactic fermentation. We produce exclusively 100% single vineyard wines.

These optimal vineyard and winemaking elements combine to produce wines of exceptional complexity and balance - classic New World wines evolved from centuries of European artisanal tradition and experience.
