Koi Zen Cellars opened in April 2015 — fulfilling the long-time dream of its two owners who took a bold leap into urban winemaking in San Diego. Located in a business park near Miramar, Koi Zen is a boutique urban winery that sources premium California fruit from wherever grapes grow best — not tied to a single estate, but committed to finding the finest California vineyards for each varietal. Since neither owner could grow anything, they channeled all their passion into the beautiful balance between the art and science of winemaking. Now celebrating their 10th year in business, Koi Zen has given back over $75,000 to local charities and causes with a 501(c)(3). The philosophy is simple and powerful: start with the highest quality fruit from all over California, don't screw it up, and you have a fighting chance of making a quality bottle of wine. The result is a warm, community-focused winery with an enthusiastic membership base and a deep commitment to making the world a better place through wine.
