Fourth segment of this weeks Show: Seawind Wines... the essence of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay cooled by sea winds - Ken Dunkley
Ken Dunkley is the founder and winemaker for Seawind Wines, member, San Francisco Wine Association, finds the best vineyards in coastal valleys where abundant sunshine is tempered by sea air. The best California wines owe their rich flavor, balance and structure to the Pacific Ocean. Cool Pacific winds bring foggy mornings, bright afternoons and chilly nights. Ideal conditions for long hang time. Perfect for grapes to develop rich flavor, naturally balanced sugar and acidity, and ripe tannins.
