The wine region of Paso Robles

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: Chaptalization

The addition of sugar at the time of fermentation of the must, an ancient practice, but theorized by Jean-Antoine Chaptal at the dawn of the 19th century. The sugar is transformed into alcohol and allows the natural degree of the wine to be raised in a weak or cold year, or - more questionably - when the winegrower has a harvest that is too large to obtain good maturity.
