The wine region of Yorkville Highlands
Altitude AVA (1998, 40,000 acres) in southern Mendocino between Alexander Valley and Anderson Valley, vineyards above 800 ft: Cabernet Sauvignon dominant, followed by Syrah, Pinot Noir and Merlot (83% reds), promising Sauvignon Blanc. Rocky gravel-rich soils, superior drainage forcing roots deep — small concentrated berries. Marine influence over half the time, morning fogs, intermediate climate between warm Alexander and cool Anderson.
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).
