The wine region of Tuolumne County
County of the Sierra Foothills in central California (vineyards at 600-1,200 m, rocky well-drained soils, marked diurnal swings between sunny days and cold alpine nights). Zinfandel is the Foothills flagship red — rustic, full-bodied profile with concentrated ripe fruits. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Sangiovese and Aglianico as powerful spiced reds. Chardonnay, Viognier and Grenache as complements.
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: Varietal wine
Name given to the local wine (IGP), produced from a single grape variety that gives the wine its characteristics of structure and aroma. The Languedoc is the leading producer of this type of wine, from most of the major French grape varieties.
