Grown in California, Australia, Chile and South Africa for export markets, one of the world's most exported table grapes, prized for its appearance and keeping quality. American black seedless grape obtained in 1973 in California by complex crossing.

The wine region of San Antonio Valley
AVA in southwest Monterey (2006), 15 miles from the Pacific in the Santa Lucia Mountains: warm, dry continental climate (~3,000 Winkler degree-days) suited to Bordeaux and Rhône varieties — Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Marsanne, Tempranillo, Grenache and Albariño. Evening Pacific breezes and Lake San Antonio fog preserve acidity. Gravelly loam soils, marked diurnal range, full-bodied and concentrated profile contrasting with cooler northern Monterey.
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: Vintage (champagne)
It is a champagne made from a single harvest. In principle, we only vintage the great years: 1988, 1990, 1995, 1996... We find more often, now, the very good 2002, and the 2004, a little short.
