"The 1992 Mayacamas is a terrific bottle of cabernet that is just now beginning to blossom and offer up fine drinking, though it will likely continue to improve with further bottle age. The deep and classic nose offers up a superb mélange of red and black cherries, chipotle peppers, tobacco, a touch of tar, cigar ash and a complex base of soil. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and beautifully tangy, with a rock solid core of fruit, a lovely base of stony soil tones, modest tannins and superb length and grip on the complex and very classy finish."

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.
