"An ostentatious, bold, brawny wine, this 1976 Cabernet is bursting with extract and richness. Still young, the wine exhibits a saturated ruby/garnet color with slight amber at the edge, an unctuous texture, loads of cedary, earthy, herbaceous scents, and lavish quantities of jammy, cassis fruit. A spectacular effort, it is brilliantly balanced . . ."

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.
