Exploring the different regions of California's wine country. Start your holiday celebration with a selection of 5 amazing wines.
California produces nearly 30 percent more wine than the entire country of Australia and 90 percent of all wine produced in the USA. If California were a separate nation, it would rank No. 4 worldwide in terms of overall wine production.
So where is all this wine being produced? The starting point to understanding California wine is realizing that the state can be easily divided into four primary wine-producing regions: North Coast, Central Coast, Central Valley, and South Coast. In turn, each of these massive regions can be broken down into smaller, distinctive wine sub-regions. The North Coast, for example, is home to both Napa Valley and Sonoma, the two top California wine regions. And, in turn, these two wine regions are further broken down into very distinctive AVAs – Napa has 16 different AVAs, while Sonoma has 13. In addition to Napa and Sonoma, the two other primary wine regions located within the North Coast are Mendocino County and Lake County. In addition, the Los Carneros AVA (typically referred to as just “Carneros”) straddles both the Napa and Sonoma wine regions and is generally considered to be part of both.
Napa Valley, of course, is the wine region that everyone immediately recognizes, since it is one of the most famous wine regions in the entire world. Napa has over 600 wineries, ranging from small boutique wineries to large, corporate wineries. While the dominant grape in Napa is Cabernet Sauvignon, the region’s wineries also produce award-winning wines from Chardonnay, Merlot, Pinot and Sauvignon Blanc. Some of the more notable AVAs included within Napa are Howell Mountain, Oakville, Stags Leap and Yountville.
If there is a close second to Napa in terms of brand recognition, it is Sonoma. The dominant grape in Sonoma is Pinot Noir. Sonoma has 13 different AVAs, and the most famous of them include Russian River Valley, Dry Creek, Chalk Hill, Knights Valley, and Alexander Valley. Overall, there are more than 500 different wineries within Sonoma.
