"I often ask myself do I love New World or Old World wines? Cabernets from California are often loaded with oak, extracted and, alcoholic. The same grape variety from France is sometimes rustic and earthy. In the end, true wine lovers only care about how good the wines taste. The 2015 Bellacosa Cabernet Sauvignon shows wonderful richness and elegance. This wine exhibits black fruit and dust in the aromas and flavors as it settles onto the palate with lasting richness and balance."

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.
