The wine region of Yolo County
California county in the Sacramento Valley (4 sub-AVAs: Capay Valley, Dunnigan Hills, Clarksburg, Merritt Island): Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Petite Sirah are the signature kings — varied profile by AVA, Capay Valley rocky volcanic soils concentrating aromatics, Dunnigan Hills dry loams with excellent drainage forging modest yields. Tempranillo, Cabernet, Malbec, Grenache, Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc and Albariño as complements.
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: Yellow wine
White wines from the Jura region aged in oak barrels without topping up for at least 6 years. A veil of yeast forms on the surface of the wine, which undergoes slow oxidation, giving it a particular taste reminiscent of nuts.
