"The 1994 Kalin Sémillon is another from a fairly ripe vintage, with the wine coming in at 13.5 percent alcohol. This is a lovely wine that is now fully into its apogee, wafting from the glass in a blend of tangerine, orange peel, toasted walnuts, a touch of petrol, hints of new leather and very lightly-roasted coffee beans. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and beautifully structured, with more apparent youth on the palate than the nose suggests. The wine is rock solid at the core, complex, beautifully-balanced and still has an excellent spine of acidity to carry it along for many more years to come. A fine, fine vintage for this iconic California wine."

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.
Prized both for age-worthy dry whites and, when affected by noble rot, the great sweet wines of Sauternes. It offers waxy texture and honeyed depth.
