The wine region of Sonoma Mountain
High-altitude AVA (up to 2,400 ft, AVA 1985, 800 acres) west of Sonoma Valley: Cabernet Sauvignon signature as king red — powerful, elegant reds with signature mid-palate richness, tannins both round and silky, depth without weight. Vines on the sunny east-facing slope above the fog. Pinot Noir on cooler western slopes. Distinctive thermal belt: mild nights and tempered days, a singular Sonoma elegance.
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: Sour
Said of a wine that is unpleasantly pungent and has a vinegar-like odour.
