Ceritas Wines

Located in Healdsburg, in the heart of the Californian wine country, Ceritas Wines is a small but beautiful "family" run business run by John Raytek and Phoebe Bass.

Simplicity is John and Phoebe's favorite word to describe their approach to viticulture; it is here that man before acting learns to listen to the vineyard. This is the case in the cellar, where no dogmas or particular methods are followed, but rather where the work is carried out according to the following methods The right amount of flexibility is added to the traditional ones.

Particular attention is paid to the enhancement of old vineyards naturally predisposed to confer low yields. Ceritas works small plots from the denominations of Sonoma Coast and Santa Cruz Mountains where the Pinot Noir and the Chardonnay give wines of great expressiveness, freshness and elegance.
