"(From the cooler Coombsville area): Full red. Rather oaky aromas of blackberry and licorice are lifted by herbs, pepper and flowers. A rather penetrating style if a bit aggressive, with dark berry flavors energized by Cabernet Franc notes of licorice and flowers. Finishes with serious chewy tannins. A highly aromatic blend but will it blossom further with additional bottle aging?"

The fourth-largest wine producer in the world, led by California. American fine wine is defined by ripe, expressive fruit and a spirit of innovation, with Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon among the most sought-after wines globally.
An aromatic red grape lending perfume, red fruit and a leafy, savory edge. It thrives in the Loire and as a key blending partner in Bordeaux, especially Saint-Emilion.
The world's most planted premium red grape, yielding deeply colored, tannic and structured wines with cassis, cedar and graphite notes. Firm tannins and acidity make it exceptionally age-worthy, whether as a varietal or the backbone of a Bordeaux blend.
