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: Dosing liqueur (champagne)

Also known as liqueur d'expédition, a solution made up of wine and sugar added to champagne after disgorgement and which determines the type of wine: extra-brut, brut, extra-dry, dry, demi-sec.
