"Named after the family's grandfather, this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot is still young, but quite delicious and elegant. Aromas of lava rock, dust and cracked earth meet with black-plum fruit on the nose. The palate is framed by sticky tannins, offering concentrated elderberry, rose petal, lilac, incense and wet-riverstone flavors. It has great potential for long aging."

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.
Produces plush, supple, fruit-forward reds with plum and chocolate notes. Softer and earlier-maturing than Cabernet, it adds flesh and roundness to blends and stars in Right Bank Bordeaux.
A deeply colored, tannic Bordeaux blending grape adding color, structure and floral, spicy complexity in small proportions.
