AU BON CLIMAT - SANTA BARBARA

Au Bon Climat (which means “a well-exposed vineyard”) produces

internationally acclaimed Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in California’s

Santa Barbara County. Jim Clendenen, the eccentric maverick behind

these wines, was one of the first who recognised the potential of

the cooler climate in the South of California and has since become a

trendsetter for Californian wines. They don’t conform to the generally

expected style of big powerful wines that dominate the region, instead

take more inspiration from Burgundy and producing more elegant wines.
