"13% alcohol. Bright, fresh medium ruby. Aromas of blackcurrant, mocha, licorice, spices and espresso are complicated but not overwhelmed by a sexy leathery funkiness. Fine-grained and sweet, conveying an impression of thickness without weight. Flavors of blackberry, mulberry, licorice, leather and herbs are framed and intensified by harmonious ripe acidity. The very long finish features a wild Old World rusticity, along with superb clarity and lift. Really superb wine with a deep sweetness."

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.
