"The two 1993 Cabernet Sauvignons are beautifully built, authoritatively-flavored and dense wines with an undeniable sense of finesse and elegance. There is good purity, well-integrated toasty oak, and fine acidity. While both wines are accessible, each is in need of some time in the cellar. The 1993 Cabernet Sauvignon Mt. Veeder exhibits a Bordeaux-like gracefulness and firm tannin, as well as superb blackcurrant aromas and flavors intertwined with high quality oak, minerals, and spice. It should age well . . . . Impressive winemaking is evident in all of these efforts from Robert Craig."

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.
