In Memoriam
Dick & Dolores Kelsey
What began as a retirement project back in 1999 had blossomed into a full-time labor of love for the late Dick and Dolores Kelsey, long-time residents of See Canyon. While 100% of our grapes are now sourced, the winery property used to play host to the Estate Chardonnay and Estate Pinot Noir. Dick and Dolores have also made space for the 200+ wild peacocks on the property, with more chicks hatching each year.
Owner & General Manager
Keith Kelsey
Son of Dick and Dolores and immensely proud of his family's heritage, Keith can often be overheard explaining the family history to interested visitors and ensuring each customer is enjoying their experience.
A former Avila Beach Fire Chief and Port San Luis Harbor Commissioner, Keith can often be found tending to the winery property, as well as managing quality control for the wines and hard ciders produced here.
Winemaker & General Manager
Joey Roedl
An Atascadero native, Joey received his Bachelor’s degree in Agricultural Business from California Polytechnic State University, SLO in 2014. Joey is married to Laurie Kelsey’s beautiful niece Courtney. He lives in Atascadero with their two children.
In between learning how to make wine from the amazing Jac Jacobs, he plays sports and enjoys the outdoors. To Joey, winemaking is just as much fun as it is hard work. Joey says, “I learned that I am truly blessed to be a part of this family business. There is no place in the world I'd rather be than Kelsey See Canyon Vineyards.”
