The wine region of Monterey County
Californian cool-climate star (Central Coast): signature Pinot Noir as king red on Santa Lucia Highlands - concentrated and complex with notes of cherry, raspberry, plum, undergrowth and a spicy touch, silky tannins and preserved vibrant acidity.

Cabernet and Syrah on the warm side. ~40,000 ac of vines, Monterey Bay fogs and strong thermal swings shape benchmark cool-climate Pinots.
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: Concentrator
A device that removes water from grape must by reverse osmosis or entropy system. Its proponents say that it is better to remove water than to add sugar to produce more alcohol. The improperly used concentrator can also exaggerate bad tastes or greenness of tannins.
