The wine region of Sta. Rita Hills

Sacred ground of cool-climate Pinot Noir and Chardonnay (western tip of Santa Ynez, AVA 2001): signature Pinot Noir reigns (2,100 acres) with intense red and black fruit aromas, silky tannins and clean earth, white pepper and clove spices. Mineral, Chablis-like Chardonnay (500 acres), signature tension and freshness. Also Syrah, Barbera and Sauvignon Blanc. Marine corridors between the Purisima and Santa Rosa Hills, marine limestone soils, a Californian Burgundian 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).
