RIP Mark Ketcham, Ketcham Estate

Been carrying Mark’s wines for years. Drank more than we sold, but he made stellar Russian River Pinot Noirs, Viognier, Chards and Roses. Just learned he has passed and no cause was mentioned but it comes on the heels of Marek’s, (Adventures in Wine), passing from Corona Virus. This virus is getting real now that it is taking people I know and possibly, two in a single day.

RIP Mark.

I really liked the Ketcham pinot back maybe 15 years ago or so. Good wine, fairly priced. May he Rest In Peace.

Very sad to hear…

Very sad to hear. This apparently was not related to the virus, however.

Remember visiting his vineyard when it was first starting out with Steve Rigisich.
Mark was a truly unique individual!
RIP guy…

TTT

We met at the vineyard with Steve also… very knowledgable guy.

That’s about the same time for me.

RIP

Does anyone have more info? I can’t find anything on the internet.

God speed Mark
