The wine region of Monterey

Vast AVA of the Salinas Valley in California (~40,000 ac, AVA 1984), a natural funnel cooled by Pacific breezes: ultra-dominant Chardonnay signature as the white king (~50%) — vivid, citrus and white fruits, dazzling acidity. Pinot Noir and Riesling on cool coastal sectors, fine and taut. Further south, warm sectors for structured Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah and Zinfandel. Includes Santa Lucia Highlands, Arroyo Seco, San Bernabe, Burgundian and sun-drenched 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: Rimage

"Vintage", in Catalan. A natural sweet wine that is bottled early to preserve its fruitiness, as opposed to those aged in an oxidizing environment (see this word). Syn.: vintage (for maury, port).
