"As I reported in issue 92, this is one of the super bargains in Napa Cabernet. It displays a dark, saturated color, a rich, aromatic nose of cassis fruit, vanillin, and a touch of licorice, outstanding concentration, a rich, velvety-textured palate, and a chewy, supple, long finish. Accessible and more flattering to drink than the 1990 Reserve..."

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.
