| Thomas George Estates Producer websiteSauvignon Blanc Varietal CharacterWindsor Oaks VineyardLocated in West County, 10 miles from the coast as the crow flies, this is the perfect location for Pinot Noir. This vineyard's soil composition is a rich Goldridge Sandy Loam. With consistent fog extending hang time, this fruit is fully developed and loaded with complexity. This former Granvenstein Apple orchard was replanted in the early 80's by Randy Peters, who paired the right clone with the right vineyard site. The pinot noir from this block is the Wadenswil (2A) Clone, which is grown on 5-C and 101-14 rootstocks. ©2010 - 2012 Kokomo Winery, Erik Miller Wines, Inc. USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Sonoma CountyMendocino CountyRussian River Valley Russian River Valley Winegrowers Association | Wikipedia |
