California's Central Coast region stretches 500 km from San Francisco in the north to Santa Barbara in the south. If you start in San Francisco and runs to the south, the weather changes gradually from anything

that might remind you cool Danish summer weather to a warm and nice surfer-friendly environment.
After running about a third of the way, you come to Monterey County. Here you will find among other rich man's artist-bohemian ghetto Carmel, where Clint Eastwood was once mayor. We are in Steinbeck country, and if you visit Monterey's historic Cannery Row, with a little good will still imagine Steinbeck's characters, fighting for survival during the 1930s depression. The vast Pacific Ocean forms both coastal and climate in these parts - both are raw and beautiful. The fog is a regular summer guest who drop by every day and pulls several kilometers inland. Not so good for tourists, but really good for the many vineyards where coolness delaying the grapes growing pains and keep the sugar content down to a reasonable level. If you move a few miles into the country and to the top of the small ridge Santa Lucia Range, which runs north / south along the coast, you on the other side look down on a small exclusive wine region that extends up the back of the comb. Here the fog company of a cool Pacific pembuatan id card breeze that is pulled pembuatan id card from Monterey Bay down through the Salinas Valley at the foot of the ridge. The sum is an ideal microclimate for cold-loving grape varieties such as Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, pembuatan id card here is an early flowering and a long, steady growing season, which culminates with a dry harvest season and fully ripened grapes.
Wine region called pembuatan id card Santa Lucia Highlands and is - along with 'the true Sonoma Coast' - the region of California, which in recent years moving most of Pinot-front. Here is the new shooting pembuatan id card stars, and then there are the mega superstar Gary Pisoni, pembuatan id card who has cultivated grapes in the region since 1982 and is known both for its own wines and for the many Pisoni wines, and other top producers produce on his coveted grapes. The latter is an honor that only accrue treasures as Hirsch, Rochioi, Bekstoffer and the like. Pisoni produces two cuvees - topvinen Pisoni Estate, sold to 'members only' and the 2nd label wines Lucia, which is a little easier to grab if you know where to look. Therefore, it is also a bit of a feather in the cap of Kenneth, the man behind Danish KK Wine, he has been Pisoni in the barn and now offers Danish wine lovers the opportunity to taste not only Lucia, but also Pisoni Estate. A real stunner! Yesterday we started out with the 2011 Lucia Santa Lucia Highlands Pinot Noir, a blend of grapes from three vineyards Pisoni, Gary's and Sobranes. And keep your mouth shut now where it's pembuatan id card a nice wine. Young and just landed yet incredibly consistent and brimming with confidence. Layers of raspberries between ground black pepper, fenikelfrø, pembuatan id card cardamom and a touch of vanilla. Full-bodied, with soft tannins, which tightens up a bit without scratching too much. A wine that wauw'er both 1st, 2nd and 10 once you put the muzzle

in it - but beware. You are SO hooked.

Nanna Wang Carlsen Wine and bon vivant with a penchant pembuatan id card for words and pictures. Has an inner Californian in the stomach, which came to life when I some years ago lived 2.5 years in Berkeley - in the middle of the Californian wine country. I worked among others with PR and marketing for a handful of California producers and took a lot of courses in wine tasting, manufacturing and cultivation. For you can easily pembuatan id card enjoy wine without prior knowledge, but the stories, the history, the people and techniques behind bring color and meat on experience. And I also hope that this blog does. View my complete profile
