The wine region of Suisun Valley
Solano County AVA east of Napa (1982, 29 grapes): Petite Sirah signature red king — dense, structured and inky reds with concentrated black fruit and firm tannins. Also round Merlot and ripe Cabernet Sauvignon on western slopes, spicy Zinfandel and Grenache. Albariño, Verdelho and Vermentino as aromatic whites. Coast Range to the west and Suisun Bay breezes temper Central Valley heat.
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: Aging
Period during which a wine is kept in a cellar where it goes through different phases of evolution of its aromatic range and a maturation of its constituents (evolution of the colour, refining of the tannins, harmonization of the different flavours, etc.). The wine evolves better and less quickly in large containers, whereas it deteriorates prematurely in half-bottles.
