93 JG "...It soars from the glass in a beautiful mélange of black cherries, sweet cassis, coffee, a hint of mint, a great base of soil tones, Latour-like walnuts, cigar ash and a touch of chipotle pepper. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, deep and vibrant, with a plush core of pure fruit, beautiful balance, very modest tannins and great length and grip on the very long and refined finish."

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.
