Powerful, sun-drenched reds of California's Central Coast: ripe, concentrated Cabernet Sauvignon (40%) with notes of plum and chocolate, round tannins. Emblematic Rhône grapes — fleshy peppery Syrah, fruity Grenache, structured Mourvèdre, Viognier in white. Spicy old-vine Zinfandel, a local signature. AVA of San Luis Obispo, 11 sub-AVAs, Mediterranean climate with thermal swings on limestone soils.


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: Residual sugars

Sugars not transformed into alcohol and naturally present in the wine. The perception of residual sugars is conditioned by the acidity of the wine. The more acidic the wine is, the less sweet it will seem, given the same amount of sugar.
