The wine region of Petaluma Gap

AVA in southern Sonoma (2017) defined by constant Pacific winds ≥8 mph through the wind gap: Pinot Noir (75%), Chardonnay (13%) and Syrah (12%) in cool-climate style. Wind closes stomata, slows ripening, concentrates berries with thick skins — preserved acidity, intense aromas of fresh fruit and saline notes. Elegant spicy Pinot Noir, tense mineral Chardonnay, peppery savory Syrah. Pacific-San Pablo Bay fogs, varied soils, unique wind-driven 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).

The word of the wine: Flexible

A tender wine with little tannin.
