"A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Tempranillo, mostly sourced from younger vines, the 2018 Double Lucky #8 shows a gorgeous bouquet of freshly tilled loamy soils, green olive tapenade, black tea and wild blackberry compote aromas that all meld in the glass. The palate is already beautifully evolved, showing tar, leather, black currant jelly, orange rind and umami tones that come together nicely. The salinity, weight and length of the wine add to the complexity."

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.
