Discover the grape variety: Pinot noir

Elegant reds, light in colour with silky tannins, showing strawberry, cherry and raspberry aromas, evolving to forest floor, mushroom and spice with age. Fresh acidity, delicate finish. Star of the Côte d'Or (Romanée-Conti, Chambertin, Volnay), pillar of Champagne (Blanc de Noirs) and signature of Oregon, Central Otago and Sonoma Coast. An early-ripening Burgundian variety, one of the world's greatest.

The wine region of Mount Harlan

San Benito County AVA (1990), California, 25 miles east of Monterey Bay, vines at 1,800-2,200 ft: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay in Burgundian style — vivid red fruits, earthy minerality and high natural acidity. One of California's highest, coolest and driest AVAs — climate close to southern Burgundy, little rain, cool winds. Rare limestone soils in California. Iconic estate Calera, sole commercial producer in the district.


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: Velouté

Said of a wine that is soft and caressing in the mouth.
