"A rich, exuberant wine, the 2011 Thirteen bursts from the glass with mocha, espresso, plums, black cherries, licorice and cloves. This is one of the most overt, fruit-driven 2011 Cabernet Sauvignons I tasted. There are no hard edges or contours in this impeccably crafted Cabernet Sauvignon. Readers will find tons of early appeal in the Thirteen. I doubt few people could pick this out as a 2011. A rich, full-bodied finish rounds things out in style. Thirteen is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon."

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.
St. Helena is a warm valley-floor sub-AVA in Napa Valley, California, producing rich, ripe and generously fruited Cabernet Sauvignon of supple tannins, plush texture and classic Napa structure.
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.
