"The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Rennie Reserve comes from one of the estate’s finest parcels in the foothills of the Mayacamas Mountains in St. Helena. Named for the winery’s founder, this deep ruby/purple-hued Cabernet offers sweet black cherry and black currant fruit intermixed with a note of that loamy Rutherford dust. Full-bodied and powerful as well as elegant, pure and spicy, this supple-textured, forward 2008 builds incrementally in the mouth."

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.
St. Helena is a warm valley-floor sub-AVA in Napa Valley, California, producing rich, ripe and generously fruited Cabernet Sauvignon of supple tannins, plush texture and classic Napa structure.
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.
