The Family
Vineyards. Each day as we gaze at the surrounding vineyards, we are reminded of the first Ceja vine. Planting our first vine together in rich Carneros soil was an exciting moment. That vine symbolized our bond as a family and strengthened our shared commitment to produce premium wines. We proudly continue a three-generation tradition of growing choice grapes in the beautiful Napa and Sonoma Valleys. We invite you to join us on our journey.
As you explore our website you'll see, repeated often, a bell with the Latin inscription: vinum (wine), cantus (song), and amor (love). In Mexico, church bells ring to reveal the time, announce community celebrations or call parishioners to church. We have adopted the bell as our trademark, and symbolically ring it now to invite you to become a part of Ceja Vineyards.
Learn about (and purchase!) our wines by selecting the Buy Wine page and reading descriptions of our Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Vino de Casa (a red blend and a white blend) we're producing today. Meet our family when you read Our Family Story.
Learn about vineyard locations by perusing the map on our Vineyards page. We'd love to hear from you. Give us a ring or send us an email by choosing the Contact Us page. You can even join the Casa Ceja Wine Club. Join us for dinner when you print out one of our favorite recipes on the Recipes page.
¡Salud!

Carneros climate allows our grapes to remain on the vine longer, achieving high acidity and ultimate flavor development. We tend our vines diligently and wait for the exact moment when full maturation has been reached before harvesting.
Minimal interference is needed during crushing. Fruit is handled gently during the wine making process and we select the best yeast strains to carry out the fermentation. New French and American oak barrels do not overpower the fruit, yet provide the perfect environment for aging.
The grapes speak for themselves, expressing full flavor, resulting in wines that are crisp, with a hint of the tropics and depth of character.
As a family of growers, we are so proud of our grapes; we wish we could bottle them right from the vine.
Terroir, (pronounced tair wahr), is a French term and strictly translated refers to the earth. In the Carneros Region, the term is defined as a s pecial set of conditions encompassing all the components that affect t he grapes grown here. The soil's chemistry and physical structure, the slope and orientation of the hills and valleys and the weather are all factors of terroir. Located approximately 40 miles northeast of San Francisco, the Carneros Region's moderate climate is created by fog, moist air, and cool breezes from the Pacific Ocean. Protected from harsh weather by the Coastal Range, Carneros summer days are warm with cool nights and winters are mild. As a result, grapes stay on the vine longer, reaching high acidity and full flavor development.
At Ceja Vineyards, we match vines to terroir, planting each variety where it grows best. Our wines are a true reflection of their origins.
Las Amigas Road, Napa "The beauty and mysticism of wine isthat its basic elements - grapes andwild yeast - converge naturally tomake itself. Our job as farmers andwinemakers is simply to assist MotherNature."~Pedro Ceja
