The wine region of Sonoma Coast
Elegant, saline Pinot Noir as signature and vibrant Chardonnay: refined coastal reds with aromas of fresh cherry, poached strawberry, cranberry and blackcurrant, sweet spices and floral touches, straight acidity. Energetic Chardonnay with notes of green apple, Meyer citrus, stone fruit and saline minerality. Vast AVA in north-west Sonoma, directly exposed to Pacific fogs and breezes, very cool climate over a long season. Chiselled maritime identity, medium to long ageing.
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: Reassembly
During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
