Tip of the Week
Six varietals predominate California wines. They are: the white Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay, and the red Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon. There are other common varietals that you will find but not as often as the six above. You will find among the white wines Viognier, Gewürztraminer, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Gris. Among the reds, the Syrah grape is becoming very popular. So are the California Italian wines of Barbera and Sangiovese. Cabernet Franc, a common filler in Cabernet and Merlot wines, is also becoming more popular.
