The wine region of South Coast

Southern California AVA from Los Angeles to the Mexican border, the state's oldest wine region (18th-century missions). Temecula Valley as historical heart. Sunny Syrah signature with signature notes of blackberry, plum, black pepper, eucalyptus and a spicy touch, round tannins. Firm Cabernet, supple Merlot, accessible Sangiovese and Tempranillo.


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).
