" Bright, dark red. Aromas of black raspberry, blackberry and licorice are complicated by some gamey, truffley funkiness. Supple and fat but at the same time youthful and fresh, offering savory red berry and spice flavors. Turns distinctly tight on the back half, finishing with notes of framboise, plum and mocha and youthfully clenched, drying tannins that will require patience. Very firmly structured."

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.
Syrah (Shiraz) produces dark, powerful reds with black fruit, pepper and smoked-meat notes. It yields elegant, perfumed wines in the northern Rhone and bold, rich styles in Australia.
