The wine region of Santa Cruz Mountains
High-altitude AVA above the Pacific fog layer: signature Pinot Noir as king on cool slopes — complex reds with red and black fruits, Burgundian finesse and New World depth, long ageing. Ample, tannic Cabernet Sauvignon on warmer, sunnier eastern slopes. Lively, mineral Chardonnay with measured oak ageing, Merlot and Zinfandel as backup (25% each). Rugged terrain between San Francisco and Monterey, a chiselled mountain identity.
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: Shine
