Straddling Napa and Sonoma, Los Carneros is California's premier cool-climate region for Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and sparkling wine. San Pablo Bay's influence creates conditions closer to Burgundy than typical California.

California's most diverse wine region, the Central Coast stretches 250 miles from San Francisco to Santa Barbara. Cool-climate Pinot Noir, bold Rhône varieties, and everything in between thrive in this patchwork of terroirs.

The northern half of the Côte d'Or, the Côte de Nuits is Pinot Noir's spiritual homeland. This narrow strip of vineyards produces Burgundy's most powerful, long-lived red wines from legendary villages like Gevrey-Chambertin and Vosne-Romanée.

The largest and most powerful of Burgundy's great red wine villages, Gevrey-Chambertin boasts nine Grand Crus—more than any other commune. Its wines combine structure, depth, and remarkable longevity.

The birthplace and sole legitimate source of true Champagne, this northerly French region produces the world's most celebrated sparkling wine through méthode traditionnelle. Chalky soils and cool climate create wines of unparalleled elegance.

Sonoma's Cabernet country, Alexander Valley produces rich, approachable reds with soft tannins and ripe fruit. Warm days and benchland vineyards create wines that rival Napa at friendlier prices.
