Proprietor (And Good Friend & A Wonderful Lady!)

Kelly Fleming has overseen the development of her Napa Valley vineyard, Kelly Fleming Wines and estate (Kelly Fleming Wines)with an artist’s eye for scale and proportion, and an environmentalist’s desire to ensure that her children will inherit land more healthy than when it came under her stewardship. Enlisting the help of noted experts in the field, Kelly has begun careful restoration efforts that include well researched site appropriate planting and the introduction of honey-bee hives to pollinate vineyard cover crops and promote native plant reseeding, creating a healthy balance between agriculture and the natural “I derive great pleasure from the thought that by caring for this land we can actually produce a better wine – - a wine worthy of the beautiful place from which it comes.”

Wine Maker:

Celia Welch was recently named “Winemaker of the Year” by Food and Wine Magazine. Born to a family of home winemakers in Medford, Oregon, Celia developed a fascination for flavors and aromas early in life. In combination with her passion for science and love of a rural lifestyle, it was not surprising that she selected to pursue a career in winemaking. After graduating from the University of California at Davis, Celia traveled the wine regions of the northwestern and eastern US and then headed south to New Zealand and Australia, working in the vineyards of the Barossa Valley before settling in the Napa Valley.

Celia worked for several wineries. In 1995 she decided to pursue her consulting career full-time. As an independent winemaker she is able to work with a limited selection of Napa Valley clients, including Kelly Fleming Wines.

Celia earned the Rising Star Award from the Southern California chapter of Women for Winesense, and was inducted to the Winemaker’s Hall of Fame by the national chapter of the same organization. She is a professional member of the ASEV and a past co-chair of the Napa Valley Wine Technical Group.

……” While both sides of my family have a German bloodline, it wasn’t until I worked at Grammer’s Restaurant in Cincinnati (1988) that I was introduced to the vast palate of the German cuisine. My interpretation, is of course Americanized, but I am sticking with the classic techniques and flavor profiles in honor of this hearty fare. Brian has the pork casings soaking and readying for his sausage making excursion. I have put the orders in for the larger quantities of pork, veal and beef needed to complete our menu. Michael has selected 3 German wines and 3 German beers to have available for tastings and individual purchase. There is nothing like a good wheat beer to compliment a dish of Rinderrouladen with braised red cabbage, YUM! Tom and I look forward to sharing a taste of Germany with you next week (September 29th- October3rd), check out the various menu above for more details.”

Drew has worked side by side with John Konsgarrd, Pam Starr, and John Skupny. He also is the owner of Neiman Cellars.
