Wines of California

Discover California Wines

You might say Californians are serious about wine and relaxed about everything else. Well, maybe not everything else: from a thriving technology industry to revolutionary green farming, Californians work hard and innovate constantly. But when you’re surrounded by natural wonder and constant sunshine, it’s pretty easy to smile.

However,ittakesmorethanclimateandgeographytoproducefinewine.Peoplemake the difference. Inspired by lifestyle changes of the past four decades, rising incomes, and more worldly perspectives, California’s diverse array of vintners come from all walks of life, giving rise to a heady spirit of can-do optimism and full-blown experimentation. They have blazed their own trail and forged a New World wine industry that now competes with the best. And the staggering success of these pioneering vintners has, in fact, yielded a flood of delicious wine.

More than ever, California offers great quality, diversity and value at every price point. Vintnersandgrowershaveplacedanever-higherleveloffocusontheinternationalmarket place, crafting wines that appeal to the tastes of a global consumers set. Youngergenerations(suchasthehighlysought-aftermillennialconsumers)areembracing new world wines, and California offers a compelling brand proposition in that arena, over-delivering on quality at all price points.

California remains a world leader in innovation, and the next generation of the California wine community is building on their families’ great growing and winemaking traditions, combining that with their own fresh perspective and talents. New gener-ation winemakers are using their creative energy, passion and innovation to help guide the California wine industry and take it in new directions. Digitally connected new generation winemakers are engaging consumers by using social media, in addition to traditional media channels, to attract consumers to our brands. They are going beyond traditional marketing and using food, music, video, web sites, blogs, Facebook and Twitter to demonstrate the unique and compelling aspects of California as a winegrowing region.

TheCaliforniaSustainableWinegrowingAllianceismakinganimportantcontributionto the overall success of our industry. California is proud to have 3,000 wineries and 4,600 wine grape growers who are committed to serving their communities and promoting socially and environmentally responsible farming practices. To achieve sustainability and high-quality grapes and wine, California wineries and vineyards use a continuous improvement approach – involving hundreds of practices implemented over time to best serve the environment, employees, communities, and the vineyard orwinery.Sustainablewinegrowingandwinemakingpracticesinclude:managingvineyards for sustainability and quality fruit; conserving water and energy; protecting air and water quality; maintaining healthy soil; reducing pesticide use; preserving local ecosystems and wildlife habitats; recycling natural resources; practicing environmentally preferred purchasing; and enhancing relations with employees and communities. The goal of California vintners and growers is to be the global leader in sustainable winegrowing. As the fourth leading wine producer in the world, California winegrowersareproudoftheCaliforniaSustainableWinegrowingProgram,agrassrootsinitiativethatisthefirststate-wideprogramofitskind.

The California lifestyle – its sense of inventiveness, the way wine, food and the outdoors are essential parts of life there – is evident in the wines. California wine, from more than 100 grape varieties and from regions with dramatically diverse geography, climates and cultures, has something for everyone, and along with it, a lifestyle that invites discovery.

Thisyear,weinviteyouto“DiscoverCaliforniaWines”andembracearichoenological heritage that has evolved, revealing the contemporary story of California wines which depicts the romance and authenticity of the state from end to end, and draws a connection between the aspirational California lifestyle and our world-class winegrowing region. Our vintners have their wine glasses ready for you!
