The wine region of Arroyo Grande Valley
Cool-climate AVA in southern San Luis Obispo (1990) facing southwest over 16 miles: signature Chardonnay and Pinot Noir — elegant with vibrant acidity and mineral depth. Pacific winds and morning fogs keep freshness, aromatic development without acidity loss. Pinot Noir with fresh cherries, raspberries and fine spices. Lively Chardonnay with citrus and green apple.
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: Ancestral method
A method of making certain sparkling wines such as blanquette de Limoux, sparkling gaillac or clairette de Die, which consists of a second fermentation in the bottle based on natural sugars and yeasts naturally brought by the grapes (unlike the méthode champenoise, which requires the addition of tirage liquor).
