The wine region of Anderson Valley
Cool, foggy Navarro River valley in Mendocino (AVA 1983): ultra-dominant signature Pinot Noir as king red (69%) — refined, taut reds, saline acidity and aromas of cherry and sweet spices. Lively, taut Chardonnay (21%) as king white. Aromatic Alsatian Gewurztraminer (4%) and Riesling (1%), floral Pinot Gris. A speciality of traditional-method sparkling wines (Roederer, Scharffenberger), a maritime Burgundian and Alsatian 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: Mutage
