Ceritas Colima Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Ceritas Colima Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 is a refined expression of California Cabernet Sauvignon, made exclusively from organically farmed, high-elevation vineyards. Its cool growing conditions and rocky soils give the wine impressive concentration, freshness and structure, while a restrained approach in the cellar preserves the character of the fruit. With its elegant 13% alcohol profile, it offers a poised alternative to more powerful California Cabernet styles.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red in the glass, the wine opens with inviting aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry and cherry, followed by subtle nuances of cedar, graphite, liquorice and tobacco. On the palate, concentrated dark fruit is balanced by fresh acidity, firm yet ripe tannins and a distinctive mineral character. The finish is long, precise and finely structured, with the fruit remaining in focus beneath the gentle influence of oak. This is a Cabernet Sauvignon with both immediate appeal and excellent ageing potential. It can be enjoyed now after careful aeration, while additional time in bottle should bring greater depth, integration and finesse over the coming years.

Production
Produced from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grown in high-elevation Californian vineyards, the wine reflects a cool climate and soils composed of schist and volcanic deposits. These stony conditions naturally limit yields and encourage small, concentrated grapes with pronounced freshness and structure. The vineyards are cultivated according to organic principles, while fermentation takes place with native yeast and gentle extraction to maintain balance between fruit, acidity and tannin. The wine is matured for approximately two years in French oak barrels, some of them new, adding depth and complexity without masking the fruit.

Food & Serving
A natural partner for grilled or roasted red meat, venison and other game, the wine also works beautifully with mature hard cheeses. Serve at approximately 16–18°C. Decanting for 30–60 minutes is recommended when opening the bottle young, helping to soften the tannins and reveal its aromatic complexity; older bottles should be decanted carefully to separate any sediment.
