WINE TASTING NOTES: 2013 Sterling Vineyards Limited Edition Red Carpet Reserve is a custom Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend that offers rich complexity and velvety graciousness. Blackberries, graphite, caramel and oak spices establish the dark, opulent character, lifted by bright cherries and fleshy plum from the Merlot. The wine is rich and decadent. 2014 Sterling Vineyards Limited Edition Gold Standard Reserve is a custom rich and complex white blend which unfolds in multiple layers of fruit, floral and spice with apples, pears, guava and melon. Gentle orange blossom aromas and a fresh- crushed minerality weave through the decadent layers, followed by a bright grapefruit and lemon finish. 2014 Sterling Vineyards Reserve Chardonnay’s citrus notes grace Gala apples and poached pears on the entry, and then toast and crème brûlée. Tropical fruit expands through the finish, touched by a hint of caramel and baking spice. 2013 Sterling Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley shows a full-bodied ripeness with deep purple color, followed by heady black cherry, boysenberry and sage. 2013 Sterling Vineyards Chardonnay, Napa Valley flaunts rich, golden character with ripe fruit and fragrant oak spices. 2014 Sterling Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc displays the elegance of its pedigree with a wine that is refreshing, bright and balanced offering white peach, crisp pear and citrus.

  • 2010: Year of the Woman in Wine
    2010: Year of the Woman in Wine By The Tasting Panel Editorial Team ­ Issue: January­February 2010 Amelia Ceja President, Ceja Vineyards Napa Valley As one of the few Latina women in wine in California, Amelia Ceja is determined to help shape the future of the consumer’s comprehension of—and abilities in—pairing food and wine. “I want to be thought of as being instrumental in breaking down the barriers of the mystification of wine,” says Amelia, who was appointed President of the Carneros­based winery when it was founded in 1999. “Before we even press our fruit, we know the elements that we want to show up in the wine,” she insists. It is Amelia’s culinary expertise that gifts her with an insight to work with winemaker (and brother­in­law) Armando Ceja to help discover similar flavors in the wines that also exist in food. “It was that knowledge that gave me the confidence to run the business,” she points out. “There are not a lot of women in power in our industry, so I am proud to be one of the female leaders to promote the wines, through my on­line cooking show and our wine­related blogs, showcasing global cuisine and wine exploration.” The first vintage of Ceja, released in 2001, consisted of three varietals—Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Merlot—totaling 750 cases. Today, the winery produces over a dozen varietals and a growing production of 10,000 cases. Flagship wine: “Armando tells me the Ceja Pinot Noir reminds him of me,” Amelia laughs.

  • 2013 Meritage
    2013 MERITAGE Sterling Vineyards wines express true varietal character—that set of aromas and flavors a grape variety develops when grown in the terroir that suits it best. Carefully selected winemaking methods highlight each wine’s unique personality and guarantee the high quality that distinguishes our reputation. Sterling Vintner’s Collection offers hand-crafted, approachable selections sourced from diverse terroirs and priced to be enjoyed every day. VINTAGE With near ideal conditions throughout the growing season, 2013 was another generous vintage for both vintners and growers. It began with a warm and dry spring, followed by moderate tempera- tures through summer. Harvest was remarkably smooth without any major frost events or heat spikes. Across the board, the fruit showed great balance, complexity, and varietal intensity. VINEYARD We sourced our fruit from several vineyards throughout the Central Coast known for the temperate weather and long growing season. The largest portion comes from San Lucas Valley, which is nestled against the foothills of southern Monterey County. Here, steady coastal breezes frame warm, sunny days, encouraging ripe fruit and big, dynamic tannins. Paso Robles, with its large diurnal temperatures swings, produces bold, berry flavors with spicy highlights. From Paicines, in east Monterey County, we get a rugged, brambly character that completes the profile. WINEMAKING SOURCING: “Big Bordeaux varietals require taming and care to make sure the bold fruit and big tannins are Central Coast properly managed – from harvest through aging,” says Winemaker Monica Belavic. In the vineyard, we began by walking the rows each day, looking for perfect flavor and tannin ripeness VARIETAL COMPOSITION: before picking.
