Cecilia Enriquez

A Mexican-American and New Jersey native, is the owner and winemaker of Enriquez Estate Wines. In 2011, at just 23, she embraced the challenge of transforming her family's newfound passion into a thriving winery. Without formal training, Cecilia immersed herself in Sonoma County's viticulture community, learning directly from seasoned winemakers. Her hands-on approach and dedication have led her to produce award-winning wines that reflect both her family's heritage and the distinctive terroir of the Russian River Valley. Under her leadership, the winery has flourished, offering guests not only exceptional wines but also a glimpse into the dedication and passion behind each bottle.

The North Coast of California is the crown jewel of American winemaking, renowned for producing some of the world's most prestigious and sought-after wines. Home to legendary wine regions such as Napa Valley, Sonoma County, Mendocino, and Lake County, this area is defined by its diverse terroir, coastal influences, and generations of winemaking expertise. With its rolling vineyards, cool maritime breezes, and rich soil, the North Coast offers the perfect conditions for cultivating world-class Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Zinfandel. From the bold, structured reds of Napa Valley to the elegant, cool-climate wines of Sonoma and Mendocino, this region embodies the very essence of California wine culture. When people think of California wine country, they picture the scenic landscapes and historic vineyards of the North Coast—a place where tradition meets innovation, and every bottle tells a story of craftsmanship and excellence.
