Central AVA of Salinas Valley in Monterey (California): Chardonnay flagship white dominant (one of the largest US plantings) — lively and mineral with citrus and white fruits notes, bursting acidity.

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).
