Description

Restrained aromatics of citrus fruit, pear and peach skin. The palate is excitingly fresh with zip and energy. There is precision, and steely minerality. Now, overused but, this is truly Chablis-esque. A lovely wet stony finish with an undertow of fruit, this is a truly exciting wine.

Delivery Information

In the winery, things are kept simple. Ceritas look at winemaking from a standpoint that owes more to tradition than it does to cutting-edge innovation. The Carex vineyard is planted with Chardonnay Old Wente clone, which produces tiny clusters of grapes. It is also planted closely, so the grapes do not see much direct sunlight due to shading from the surrounding vines. This helps the grapes to keep great acidity and backbone ensuring precision as well as age ability

The mission at Ceritas is to craft single vineyard expressions of place through Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The sources for the fruit along the Sonoma Coast and westernmost Russian River Valley were carefully chosen for their winegrowing merits and also for their singularity. Each allows the opportunity to craft balanced and distinct wines which will stand out on the dinner table. Just as oysters grown in Tomales Bay taste altogether different from those grown in Puget Sound, our wines are reflective of the growing seasons and soils from which they came. In the vineyard we allow our sustainable farming practices to be dictated by observation and empiricism rather than by prescriptive farming.
