About Kagan Cellars
Kagan Cellars is David Kagan's personal Pinot Noir and Chardonnay project — his winemaker surname on wines from Russian River Valley and Sonoma Coast vineyard sources selected for their maritime influence and site-specific character. The Kagan name on the label is a declaration of personal responsibility: David Kagan's judgment, David Kagan's winemaking, David Kagan's accountability for every bottle.
The Forestville-based boutique sources from the Russian River Valley's most consistently fog-influenced vineyard sites, where daily marine air from the Petaluma Gap keeps temperatures cool and extends the growing season in ways that produce Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of natural acidity and structural tension. The Kagan approach is restraint-focused: wines that reveal their site character rather than obscuring it.
The appointment-only format reflects the personal scale of a winemaker-surname boutique where the owner is directly engaged with each visitor's tasting experience.
