"The perfect 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon McGah comes from a Rutherford parcel owned by the McGah family. Virtually all Cabernet Sauvignon aged in 75% Taransaud and 25% Gamba wood, it boasts off-the-charts richness as well as an inky/purple color and notes of graphite, spring flowers, blackberries, blueberries, cassis, licorice and forest floor. This incredibly fruity, full-bodied, voluptuously textured wine can be consumed now and over the next two decades or more."

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.
California's most prestigious wine region, celebrated worldwide for opulent, structured Cabernet Sauvignon. Diverse soils and mountain-to-valley-floor sites yield wines of remarkable ripeness, power and longevity.
A benchmark Napa AVA known for structured Cabernet with a signature 'Rutherford dust' - a fine, dusty tannin - and classic cassis fruit.
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.
