California

With centuries of winemaking history and heritage, California is renowned worldwide for the quality and complexity of its grape varietals. A region whose climate creates the ideal conditions for a multitude of red and white wines, Californian vineyards are considered to be some of the finest 'new world' wines in production, particularly those from Napa Valley and Sonoma County - with a handful of wine houses in these regions gaining cult status for their exclusive, limited-run batches.
