"Bright ruby-red. Vibrant aromas of cassis, dried cherry, mocha, tar and spicy oak, complicated by fresh herbal and floral nuances. Smooth and dense in the mouth, with harmonious acids framing and lifting the fruit. Quite sophisticated and light on its feet but strong in extract. Finishes with very suave, spreading tannins and excellent length and grip . . . . thoroughly convincing."

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.
