"Sterling made 6,000 cases of this wine—you should have at least two of them. Spicy, musky, forest-fire aromas open onto rich, dark flavors (date-nut loaf, black plum, and tar) on the palate. Full and fleshy with dusty tannins, it closes with lingering, chewy tannins and dusty earth notes."

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.
