Wines from California

The California I buy from isn't the blockbuster style. It's small growers working cooler, coastal sites, making Pinot Noir and Chardonnay with freshness and restraint. Serious wines, honestly made.

About California

California is too large and too varied to describe in a sentence, and the caricature of it — oak, alcohol, jam — has been out of date for twenty years.

The wines worth buying come from the cooler sites: coastal and hillside vineyards where the fruit keeps its acidity. That is where Mark looks.
