The wine region of San Benito County
California county on the Central Coast (neighbours Cienega Valley, Lime Kiln Valley, Paicines, Mount Harlan): Pinot Noir (28%) and Chardonnay (25%) are the signature kings — cool-climate profile shaped by Pacific breezes between the Gabilan Range and Santa Lucia, warm days tempered by marine winds and altitude. Cabernet Sauvignon (16%), Merlot (8%), Riesling (5%), Sauvignon Blanc (4%) and Syrah round out this geologically complex terroir.
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: Rebêche (champagne)
Must obtained in excess of the 2 550 litres authorised for a weight of 4 000 kilos of grapes. The first 2 050 litres constitute the cuvée and the next 500 litres the taille. The rebêche represents 1 to 3 % of the total volume and must be distilled or used to make ratafia.
