"Proprietor John Raytek's impressive resume includes two years at Rhys and another four years at Copain. Raytek's wines are distinctive and full of personality. Ceritas is focused on cooler-climates sites. The vineyards are farmed following organic or biodynamic principles, depending on the site... These gorgeous wines are deserving of serious attention."
Antonio Galloni, vinous.com
"Ceritas made their first wine in 2005 and immediately set their sail as one of the finest proponents of cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in America. They have achieved this and will say that I have not tasted any more impressive."

2021 Zephyr Chardonnay
Usually $229 - Special Offer $217
"The 2021 Chardonnay Trout Gulch is lights out. Crushed rocks, white pepper, mint, citrus peel and dried flowers offer tons of palate-staining intensity. As always, the Trout Gulch is intensely saline and mineral, with a bit of youthful austerity that needs time to soften.."

2021 Carex Chardonnay
Usually $239 - Special Offer$226
"The 2021 Chardonnay Carex is bright, airy and super-expressive. Lemon peel, dried flowers, almond, chamomile and tangerine oil are some of the notes that grace this understated, nervy Chardonnay from Ceritas. The Carex is sourced from Du MOL estate vineyards.."

2021 Elliott Vineyard Pinot Noir
Usually $285 - Special Offer $269
"The 2021 Pinot Noir Elliott is another tremendous wine in this range. Dark and sumptuous, the 2021 saturates the palate with intense dark [berries]. This is an especially generous style for the West Sonoma Coast, but that is not a bad thing. There's tremendous presence and stature here."

2021 Trout Gulch Pinot Noir
Usually $275 - Special Offer $260
"The 2021 Pinot Noir Trout Gulch is a gorgeous, vibrant wine. Chalk, white pepper, mint, crushed rocks and bright, red-toned fruit are all finely delineated. Readers will find a brisk, taut Pinot that sizzles with tension. This is classic Trout Gulch Pinot"

2021 Occidental Pinot Noir
Usually $369 - Special Offer $348
"The 2021 Pinot Noir Occidental Vineyard is an absolutely riveting wine. Soft, plush tannins wrap around a core of red berry fruit, blood orange, rose petal, mint, wild flowers and lavender. Sensual and racy, with mind-blowing balance, the 2021 is magnificent. Bright saline accents linger on the explosive finish. The 80% whole clusters are pretty much buried. Don't miss it.."

2021 Cuvee Annabelle Pinot Noir
Usually $269 - Special Offer $254
"The 2021 Pinot Noir Annabelle is all class. Brisk and delineated with tons of energy, the 2021 sizzles. Dark red/purplish fruit, crushed flowers, spice, tobacco and graphite all open in the glass. There is a baritone expression of fruit that adds darkness but without overpowering the wine. Tannins are also quite present, yet the wine's balance is exceptional.."

2020 Colima Cabernet Sauvignon
Usually $239 - Special Offer $226
"The 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Colima is an exceptional wine, especially for the year. It's a blend from Paratus on Mt. Veeder, Lupina on Moon Mountain and Peter Martin Ray, Marianis and Black Ridge, all in the Santa Cruz Mountains,
the latter two planted with cuttings from Peter Martin Ray. John Raytek's original idea was to bottle a number of single vineyard Cabernets and the Colima, as the entry-level Cabernet. Vintage conditions did not allow all of those wines to be made, but the best lots were blended into this wine, with notable success. The 2021 range will include four Cabernets"
