  • Learning the Vintner's Art from the Ground Up
    Learning the vintner's art from the ground up By Roger Morris, DelawareOnline.com ­ October 20, 2004 Amelia Morán Ceja met her husband, Pedro Ceja, when both of them were Mexican­born teenagers whose families had immigrated to Napa Valley. As Hollywood might have it, both were working in the same vineyard as teens. Today, Amelia is president and chief ambassador for Ceja Vineyards, and Pedro and his winemaker brother, Armando, are co­owners. But the Ceja story is more than just an Oprah moment. Located in the Carneros region of Napa and Sonoma, Ceja is a serious winery making excellent wines for high­end prices. Although they have been growing their own grapes since 1988, winemaking did not start until 1999. Energetic and fast­talking, Amelia told participants in a wine dinner at Corner Bistro in Brandywine Hundred recently that as a 12­year­old just arrived from Mexico, she "fell in love with merlot grapes being harvested near what is now the Robert Mondavi property" and knew she wanted to some day be in the wine business. Having lived in a village in Jalisco state with no electricity or running water, she went on to graduate from college, as did the Ceja brothers. Husband Pedro studied engineering ­ still his day job ­ while Armando took up enology and became a vineyard manager. In the early 1980s, the family bought its first 15­acre plot for $400,000 and planted its first grapes. Today, Ceja makes a Vino de Casa house white blend and a red blend (each about $25 locally), merlot ($35), pinot noir ($50), syrah ($40), plus a chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon not featured at the tasting.

  • Wine for a Change
    Wine for a Change By Risa Wyatt, Wine Enthusiast Magazine ­ Issue: February 2009 In Washington DC, the Napa Valley is not just the toast of the town—wines from the acclaimed viticultural region delivered the first toasts to Barack Obama as 44th President of the United States. At the Inaugural Luncheon for President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden immediately following the swearing­in ceremony, three Napa Valley wines accompanied the three courses: 2007 Duckhorn Vineyards Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc (paired with seafood stew), 2005 Goldeneye Anderson Valley Pinot Noir (which accompanied the main course of pheasant and duck with sour­cherry chutney and molasses sweet potatoes), and Korbel Natural "Special Inaugural Cuvee" sparkling wine, which was served alongside apple­cinnamon sponge cake). Read Hail the Chief, the Chef and the Winemaker for a more comments on the luncheon’s food­and­wine pairings. "It's a huge honor for us—magnified by the fact that they served two of our wines," says Bill Nancarrow, Duckhorn winemaker. (Goldeneye belongs to the Duckhorn family of wines.) "And it's made even more special because of the excitement surrounding Mr. Obama." A tradition dating to 1897, the welcoming lunch was hosted by the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies (JCCIC) at Statuary Hall in the U.S. Capitol. The menu tied its tastes to Abraham Lincoln, who favored simple foods including root vegetables, wild game, and his favorite dessert—apple cake. Click here for the complete menu and recipes. Wines and winemakers from the Napa Valley wines have been featured and feted at other top­tier inaugural events in Washington.

  • Replacing Cervezas with Chardonnays
    Replacing Cervezas With Chardonnays By Joel Millman, The Wall Street Journal ­ August 24th, 2012 In 1967, Amelia Morán Ceja emigrated to the U.S. to join her father, a farmworker who toiled for years in California's vineyards. Today she's crossing another border, turning upwardly mobile Latinos into wine aficionados is with her subtle blend of viticulture, down­home cuisine and a Web­based marketing campaign. "We're chipping away at the margarita barrier," said the 57­year­old mother of three, who is one of the first Mexican­American women to open a commercial vineyard in Napa Valley. By that she means the commonly­held belief that spicy Mexican foods—and other chili­based delights from Asia and Africa—must be washed down with beer or a margarita instead of a top­flight wine. Ms. Morán Ceja uses Web videos to educate Latino foodies, many of them first­generation immigrants about the assembly of Mexico's more complicated dishes. She also travels the U.S. educating sommeliers of high­end Mexican and other ethnic restaurants on pairing varietals with their meals. Her timing is good: The notion that chili pairs better with wine is a buzzy new concept in the food world. François Chartier, who spent a decade researching his recent book "Taste Buds and Molecules: The Art and Science of Food with Wine," discovered that capsaicin, which is at the root of chili sauces, can't be tamed with beer or water. "Capsaicin does not dissolve in water. It is soluble in fatty and sugary substances," he said.

  • Mexican Matches
    Mexican matches Napa's Ceja family shows that wine is a winning complement to the smoke and spice of south­of­the­border cuisine By Carol Ness, The San Francisco Chronicle ­ May 1, 2003 Shrimp are marinating in cayenne and paprika. Serrano chiles are going under the knife for the sake of the guacamole. Longaniza sausage is giving up its fat in a frying pan. A feast of Mexican home cooking is in the works in the Ceja family's kitchen. And there's not a margarita nor Dos Equis in sight. This is, after all, Carneros in Napa Valley, where Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines are sprouting out under cloudy spring skies as far as the eye can see. Lined up on the table, ready to prove their mettle as pairings for the spice and smokiness of the meal, are Ceja Vineyards' elegant wines. "The meal reflects our heritage – and it goes really well with our wines," says Amelia Ceja, the tiny dynamo at the center of her three­generation family wine business. "One can make wines that would pair well with every kind of food in the world. "The wine must be balanced, and the acidity has to be there to stand up to any food style," she says, and gives the longaniza­laced Tortilla de Patatas an expert flip. The proof is in the pudding – or in this case, in Amelia Ceja's multicourse menu. This is real Mexican cuisine, no Cal­Mex burritos and tacos, no Tex­Mex palate­killing macho heat, none of the foods that may keep Americans from looking beyond tequila and beer when they eat Mexican.

  • Harvest 2002: As Crush Begins, Workers Dream of a Wine Country Career
    Harvest 2002: As crush begins, workers dream of a Wine Country career By Linda Murphy, San Francisco Chronicle ­ August 28, 2002 They come from Michoacan, Jalisco and Zacatecas, from tiny farming villages like Haro, Las Flores and Aguililla, where they grow corn, beans and fruit and get barely enough compensation to make ends meet. With little money, few possessions, limited English language skills and no guarantees, they come to the vineyards of Northern California, full of determination and rich with the hope that they will find jobs and build a comfortable life for their families. The dream begins this week for many of the estimated 7,500 workers, a vast majority of them Latino, who will be needed to harvest North Coast wine grapes between now and early November. They will go where few others are willing to go, to the steep Wine Country hillsides and hot valley floors, crouching under vines to cut off grape clusters with sharp, curved knives, paid by the bucket. It's the first step in what the workers hope will become the fulfillment of a grander vision, and the Ceja family has cleared the path. The Cejas Ceja means "eyebrow" in Spanish, and Amelia, Pedro, Martha and Armando Ceja lifted more than a few brows when they said they wanted to buy vineyard property in Napa Valley. Considering the high cost of land, the odds were slim, yet in 1983 the Cejas pooled their money with their parents and invested in less expensive land in Napa's Los Carneros region, before it became widely recognized as a premium growing area.

  • Pinotfile Vol 7 Issue 20
    Pinot Noir Wraps you in Silk Pajamas Volume 7, Issue 20 June 15, 2009 Carneros We Love Ewe In 1979, when Carneros attempted to become an American Viticultural Appellation, there were only two wineries (Acacia and Carneros Creek) and less than 1,000 acres of vines. It was Anthony Bell, an assistant winemaker at Beaulieu Vineyard, and Anne Moller-Racke, the viticulturist from Buena Vista, who helped submit the application that defined the Carneros region. The boundaries of the proposed 37,000-acre appellation were unique in that they encompassed the southern ends of both Sonoma and Napa Counties. Approval came in 1983, making Carneros the first established AVA based on climate rather than political boundaries. Carneros is classified as a Region I heat-summation climate, viticultural conditions ideally suited to Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. In 1985, the growers and wineries of Carneros founded the Carneros Quality Alliance to promote the region. The Alliance began 2006 with a new name, The Carneros Wine Alliance (www.carneros.com), with the goal of enhancing the well-deserved branding and image of the Carneros appellation. Historically, Carneros was a favored land for raising sheep (Carneros or Los Carneros in Spanish means “sheep” or “ram”) and cattle, as well as farming grain and hay, pears, plums, apples, cherries, apricots and wine grapes. In the late 1800s, the region sent a steady flow of fruit, milk and cattle to San Francisco by way of railroad stations such as Schellville and Buchili Station and docks such as Cuttings Wharf and Bentley Wharf along the Napa River and Sonoma Creek.

  • A History of Ceja Vineyards
    Ceja Vineyards is an ultra premium Latino Family owned winery founded by Mexican-American immigrants Amelia, Pedro, Armando and Martha Ceja in Napa Valley in 1999. Dalia, Belen and Ariel Ceja represent the next generation focused on continuing the legacy of crafting perfectly balanced wines to enjoy with family, friends and great food. The Ceja’s dedication to sustainable agriculture and the gentle handling of the grapes in the cellar can be tasted in every sip of their stellar estate grown Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Vino de Casa red blend and a Late Harvest white wine called Dulce Beso (sweet kiss). Celebrated winemaker Armando Ceja immigrated to the United States at age seven and immediately went to work in the agricultural fields of California alongside his siblings and parents. He made his first Cabernet Sauvignon barrel right after turning 18, and after high school, he enrolled in the enology and viticulture programs at UC Davis. Armando is also a respected vineyard manager in the Napa and Sonoma Valleys. Armando takes the wines from the vine to the bottle handling the fruit gently to create a limited collection of handcrafted wines that are complex, balanced and memorable. Ceja wines are a reflection of his talent as both a winegrower and a winemaker – they’re liquid art. Amelia, Pedro, Armando and Martha Ceja In 1967, Amelia Morán Ceja emigrated to the U.S. to join her father, a farmworker, who toiled for years in California’s vineyards. Today she’s crossing another border, turning upwardly mobile Latinos into wine aficionados with her subtle blend of viticulture, down-home cuisine and a Web-based marketing campaign.
