Monterey

Though a fairly recent and somewhat controversial region, Monterey (which includes the Salinas Valley) is showing potential. This region, which was first seriously cultivated for wine in the second half of the twentieth century, was historically thought to be too cool and blustery for winemaking (especially the northern half of the Salinas Valley and the land around the city of Monterey). Through much trial and error with many poor vintages, the region has now largely figured things out, and produces a great number of good varieties. [Content provided by Bottlenotes]
