Berkeley Hall Wine Dinner With Kelly Fleming Winery

I had the good fortune to acquire a very special 300-acre property in Simmons Canyon, just south of Calistoga, in 1998. We planted the vineyards in 1999 and decided to specialize in Cabernet Sauvignon. We dug caves and built a stone winery reminiscent of buildings you see in southern France. In 2010 we crushed our first grapes at the winery. Our annual production is about 1,000 cases. Our goal is to offer our customers an exceptional experience combining the beauty of our site and the elegance of our wines.  Kelly Fleming.

Berkeley Hall Chef Dinner for 12 people with Kelly Fleming Attending.

Additional vineyard sources have been added with the 2023 vintage.%u201D

"Endless Peace" Oil On Canvas By Simon Kenevan

Simon is drawn, like a moth to a flame, to salt water: “Some people are moved by the ‘deep’. I am inexorably captivated by the relationship of the sea and the land, and how water and current behave when land becomes a factor. Mix these variables with the ever-changing light of time and weather, and you have - me. I feel I am a man of sand, salt, and water, molded by wind and wave, baked by the sun, cleansed by rain.”
