The wine region of Santa Barbara County

Californian star of cool climates (Central Coast): signature Pinot Noir as king of reds on the cool AVAs (Sta. Rita Hills, Santa Maria Valley) — fine and mineral with notes of cherry, raspberry, undergrowth, orange peel and spice, Burgundy-style acidity. Taut Chardonnay (citrus, apple, gunflint). Fleshy Syrah (Ballard Canyon).


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: Dish
