Show Notes
In this episode of "The Good Stuff" presented by the Sonoma County Winegrowers, hosts Virginie Boone and Karissa Kruse talk with Ana Keller, Estate Director of Keller State in Petaluma. Ana shares the story of her Mexican heritage and her father’s journey to buying land in Sonoma County and planting grapes there in 1989. Ana worked for decades with her father, and started the family winery in 2010. She was part of the hard working group that realized the unique characteristics of the land and the wind in Petaluma, and helped to get designation for the Petaluma Gap AVA. Ana is also passionate about sustainability and the biodiversity of eco-systems. She plants milkweed to encourage Monarch butterflies to visit her property, and recalls the wonderful memories of going to see Monarchs when she lived in Mexico City. And finally, Virginie and Karissa share their Tuesday Night wine picks.
