Two Bottles of wine from Ceritas wines, Porter-Bass Vineyard:

2012 Pinot Noir

2011 Chardonnay

Ceritas wines are sold directly from the winery or at fine restaurants in the US and abroad. Their wines are generally not available in retail stores. "Without question, the foundation of great wine is outstanding fruit. Our belief in the fruit drives our commitment to our growers and vineyard sites. Together, we spend much of the year listening, learning, and refining what we know about the vineyards, with the goal of allowing each site to express itself fully. Truth be told, we spend far more time in the vineyard than the winery, tending to inordinately specific details of each vine. We strive for grapes that are physiologically ripe and balanced, that bear the fingerprint of the particular vineyard and vintage."
