The wine region of Santa Lucia Highlands

Narrow AVA on the western slope of the Salinas Valley in Monterey (1992, ~5,000 ac): signature dominant Pinot Noir as king red (3,400 ac) — refined, taut reds with red fruits, silky and spicy, saline freshness. Chardonnay (2,100 ac) as a lively, mineral king white with notes of citrus and stone fruits. Syrah in warmer sheltered canyons, fleshy and peppery. Daily fogs from Monterey Bay lengthen the season, a premium fresh Burgundian and Rhone identity.


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: Garde (wine of)
