About Broc Cellars
Broc Cellars is named for Chris Brockway's nickname — the familiar shortening of his surname into a personal handle that captures the approachable identity of his Berkeley urban winery. Operating from a warehouse in Berkeley's industrial Gilman district, Broc Cellars sources from unusual and undervalued California varieties — Valdiguié, Carignan, Trousseau — and makes them with minimal intervention natural winemaking techniques. The urban tasting room setting in Berkeley's food culture epicenter makes Broc one of California's most intellectually engaged wine drinking destinations.
