"The impressive 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon is made from a vineyard situated just above the renowned Grace Family Vineyard. A blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, and 12% Cabernet Franc, the wine is aged 30 months in oak casks (of which 45% are new), and is bottled without filtration. The wine exhibits a healthy, deep ruby/purple color, and an emerging nose of gorgeously sweet blackcurrant fruit nicely touched by new wood. Tannic, backward, and rich, as well as authoritatively-flavored and promising, this full-bodied, muscular Cabernet Sauvignon."

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.
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.
