95 RP "A provocative, powerful-scented nose of jammy, super-ripe fruit, herbs, and underbrush is an immediate attention-grabber. The color remains impressively dark ruby/garnet. In the mouth, there is a spectacular display of jammy, rich fruit, moderate tannins, and a voluptuous, opulent texture. There is almost a roasted quality about this wine, suggesting that the grapes were picked at extremely high sugar levels.

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.
California's most prestigious wine region, celebrated worldwide for opulent, structured Cabernet Sauvignon. Diverse soils and mountain-to-valley-floor sites yield wines of remarkable ripeness, power and longevity.
A benchmark Napa AVA known for structured Cabernet with a signature 'Rutherford dust' - a fine, dusty tannin - and classic cassis fruit.
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.
