California (III): Santa Cruz Mountains and Central Coast

See this SoundCloud audio in the original post

Although not as famous as Napa Valley, Santa Cruz Mountains and surrounding AVAs have a lineage just as long and prestigious, although neighbouring urbanisation has hindered development. To the south are regions with a more recent history such as Paso Robles and Santa Barbara. This episode looks at the huge variety of styles of wine produced south of San Francisco nearly all the way to Los Angeles - exciting, diverse, and often high quality regions.
