"This is a firm wine, bombastic in tannin structure and oak, with a nuanced hint of noble reduction. Youthfully grippy in a thicket of tar, it bristles in black currant, black cherry and sage, dusted in mountain rock, black pepper and a delightful sniff of violet. Entirely barrel-fermented, it should do well in time . . ."

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.
