"Leather, licorice, spices and plums wrap around the generous, totally inviting finish. This is a beautiful wine from Cris Cherry and Villa Creek, not too surprising considering his vineyard sources. The 2007 Onda is 34% Syrah from James Berry Vineyard, 33% Mourvèdre Denner Vineyard and 33% Tempranillo from Ohana. The wine spent a whopping 34 months in new French oak. The Mourvèdre was fermented with 50% whole clusters, while the Syrah and Tempranillo were fully destemmed."

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.
A late-ripening red lending structure, dark fruit and gamey, meaty complexity to southern Rhone and Mediterranean blends.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
Spain's noble red grape, producing structured, savory wines of red fruit and leather that respond beautifully to oak aging in Rioja and Ribera del Duero.
