Ceritas is a very exciting project that aims to produce top quality Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, known for sourcing fruit from cool-climate vineyards along the Sonoma Coast and other high-quality sites in California.
Their Chardonnays are typically marked by a strong sense of place, with a focus on minerality, bright acidity, and restrained use of oak, and are often compared to Burgundy for their elegance, balance, and age-worthiness. The 2018 vintage in California was very good, with a long growing season that allowed for slow, even ripening. The wines from this vintage are generally well-structured, with good acidity and balanced fruit, making them suitable for aging.
Drinking window: 2022 - 2040
What the critics say:
"The 2018 Chardonnay Marena offers pretty floral, green herbs and nutty tones with a core of quince. The medium-bodied palate is lively and expressive, with ever-changing flavor layers and a long finish that hints at more to come. This is similar in style to a premier cru Chablis."
