"This Cabernet tasted blind fooled very few people - while the nose may be reminiscent of Bordeaux, the inherent sweetness in this wine made everyone go to California. Lovely notes of leather, dried red fruits and wild mushrooms. Still holding up well . . ."

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.
