✦ SAN JUAN VALLEY - BY RESERVATION ONLY
Madrone Cellars
Madrone Cellars is located in the San Juan Island Valley. Surrounded by Land Bank preserved land and shared property with Island Haven Animal Sanctuary, it is, in simple words, our happy place. We renovated the interior of two historical farm buildings, where we produce all of our products. Production and the barrel room reside in our original winery, and as of 2021, our inventory and dry storage resides in a separate historical building. Tours and tastings available by reservation only.
Organic. Regenerative. Zero Compromise.
Sustainability Ethos
Sustainability lies at the heart of Madrone Cellars. Organic, regenerative farming is our foundation. Through zero chemical, circular economy farming, we are mimicking the natural systems, minimizing waste, and fostering healthy soil microbiomes. In our extensive Bottle Reuse Program, we reuse all pour bottles from the Madrone Bar + Kitchen, reducing waste and C02 emissions caused by glass bottle freight. In production, we only use biodegradable and salmon safe products, to keep our oceans safe for all living organisms.

Saltwater Farm - Our Vineyard and Orchard Partners
We partnered with Andrew Fleming and Merriss Waters, owners of Saltwater Farm, in 2021 when the estate vineyard was planted. The dream is island sparkling wines and ciders, reflecting the terroir of San Juan Island and Saltwater Farm’s specific micro climate. Their land is southern facing with excellent sunlight, rocky soil and a natural wind protection from their surrounding forest. The grape varieties planted at Saltwater Farm include Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, Siegerrebe and Albariño. The estate orchard was planted in 2023, with heritage varieties sourced from the Kwiaht Heritage Orchard on Lopez Island. The Kwiaht Heritage Orchard works to preserve unique island fruit tree varieties that are rarely found outside the San Juan Islands.
Our Story
Madrone Cellars is owned and operated by husband and wife team Shaun and Amy Salamida. With a passion for natural winemaking, wild fermentations, and sustainable agriculture, they strive to create quality wines and ciders that reflect the San Juan Islands.
