"Their blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc (all from the estate) is the 2014 Proprietary Red Tenacious. Fabulous aromatics, which are no doubt attributed to the Cabernet Franc, are present in this deep, ruby/purple wine with floral notes intermixed with forest floor, graphite, blueberry and blackcurrant. It is medium to full-bodied with silky tannins and a supple, velvety textured finish. Drink it over the next 10-15+ years. Mark Herold is the consultant for proprietors Tom and Vicki Celani at their facility on Big Ranch Road in Southern Napa Valley."

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.
