"Surprisingly, the 100% Cabernet Sauvignon (14 year old vines) 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon Klipsun Vineyard’s nose is almost Burgundian in style, revealing loads of fresh, ripe, intense black cherry aromas. This exceptionally long wine boasts an expressive personality that regales the taster with cherries (both red and black), cassis, blackberries, and complex notes of asphalt. Its copious tannin is sweet, supple, and completely enveloped in fruit."

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.
