The wine region of Sonoma Mountain
High-altitude AVA (up to 2,400 ft, AVA 1985, 800 acres) west of Sonoma Valley: Cabernet Sauvignon signature as king red — powerful, elegant reds with signature mid-palate richness, tannins both round and silky, depth without weight. Vines on the sunny east-facing slope above the fog. Pinot Noir on cooler western slopes. Distinctive thermal belt: mild nights and tempered days, a singular Sonoma elegance.
The wine region of California
Powerful, sunny reds: dense Napa Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, chocolate, tobacco, ample tannins), spicy, jammy Zinfandel from the Sierra Foothills, silky red-fruited Pinot Noir on the cool coast (Sonoma, Russian River, Central Coast). Opulent, buttery Chardonnay, notes of yellow fruit and vanilla. Varied climate, from the hot interior to the Pacific-cooled coast. 80% of US production, 139 AVAs including Napa (1st AVA, 1981).
The word of the wine: Tired
Wine that is too old, faded or has suffered from handling such as racking or bottling. In the first case it is too late, in the second case the wine must be put to rest for a few weeks in the cellar.
