The wine region of Clear Lake

AVA of Lake County (1984, North Coast California) around Clear Lake, California's largest freshwater lake: one of the coolest climates thanks to altitude and the moderating effect of the lake. Sauvignon Blanc is the signature with savoury and fruity notes with vibrant herbaceous character; Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Zinfandel are concentrated and bright reds. Five nested sub-AVAs (High Valley, Red Hills, Big Valley, Kelsey Bench, Benmore Valley), distinctive bright and fresh profile.


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: Licking

Operation consisting in sanitizing a barrel by introducing a wick of ignited sulphur which produces a release of sulphurous gas.
