The wine region of San Benito

AVA of San Benito County (1987, Central California, ~45,000 acres of which 3,000 planted): mosaic of mesoclimates favouring Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Merlot as signatures, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Grenache and Cabernet Franc as complements. Marked altitude and soil variations — limestone and decomposed granites (Chalone AVA nested within) with thermal amplitudes up to 50°F. Monterey Bay breezes refresh, identity built on finesse, freshness and aromatic concentration in cool-climate style.


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).
