The wine region of Clements Hills
Sub-AVA of Lodi (2006) on the eastern Sierra Nevada foothills (California): Zinfandel from very old vines 1900-1920, dense red fruit profile with crushed berries, black tea, sweet spice and fine tannic finish — fresher structure than central Lodi, recalling Amador Zin. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah and Rhône varieties complement. Gravelly loam and sandy-silty well-drained soils south of Mokelumne, moderate Mediterranean climate, Delta breezes.
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: White Grenache
White grape variety cultivated mainly in Spain and a little in the south of France (southern Rhône valley, Languedoc-Roussillon). It is the white variety of Grenache noir. It is used in the blending of several white wines (dry wines or natural sweet wines) to which it gives richness, fatness and floral notes.
