The wine region of Clarksburg
Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta AVA (California) cooled by the Delta Breeze: signature Chenin Blanc as king white — whites with chiseled acidity and honeyed notes, white fruits and floral touches, signature local balance. Plump and tannic Petite Sirah as king red on hot days — concentration of black fruits and spices. 35+ grape varieties grown on fertile alluvial soils, ~40°F temperature swing preserving acidity, fresh identity atypical in Central Valley.
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: Tertiary aromas
Aromas resulting from the aging of the wine in the bottle. The aromas evolve with time, from fresh fruitiness to notes of stewed, candied or dried fruit, to aromas of venison or undergrowth.
