"The valley is gravelly on the east side and more volcanic and red on the west side. They have always blended the fruit from both sides of the valley, from five different vineyards, to make just one wine. 7% Petite Sirah. Fermented in small open-top tanks. Matured in new and used French oak. Unfined and unfiltered . . . . fragrance of the variety. Red fruit, moreish acidity, full and generous but finely ripe. Pretty firm grip and more savoury on the finish. Scented red fruit dominates on the nose . . ."

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 heritage red, producing bold, brambly, high-alcohol wines of jammy dark fruit and spice, often from old vines.
