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: Green harvest or green harvesting
The practice of removing excess bunches of grapes from certain vines, usually in July, but sometimes later. This is often necessary, but not always a good thing, as the remaining grapes tend to gain weight.
