We were fortunate to visit Ceja Vineyards in April where we were introduced to the Ceja family’s gorgeous wines. πŸ™

We wanted to open a bottle to celebrate and recognize National Hispanic Heritage month. Following are the notes we took at the time, which remain true today:

Ceja is a Mexican-American family owned winery producing wines from both Napa and Sonoma valleys. β€œIn one generation the Ceja family has gone from immigrant vineyard workers to grape growers and winery owners.” πŸ’ͺ πŸ‡²πŸ‡½ πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

We loved learning about the inspiring background of this winery and family’s devotion to excellence. πŸ’•πŸ’•

The wines are designed to be paired with food (especially, though not exclusively, traditional Mexican cuisine), but are delicious on their own, too.

The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is full, velvety, and rich with a lot of ripe blackberry, cassis, and black cherry πŸ’ characteristics. Aged for 36 months in French oak, it has dark chocolate, nutmeg, and clove notes. Also leather and anise.

Delicioso! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ Salud 🀩
