"(85% cabernet sauvignon, 8% cabernet franc and 7% merlot): Bright purple. Blackberry, dark cherry, licorice, wild herbs, chocolate and a touch of smoked game on the nose. Lush and deep but surprisingly lively, with concentrated flavors of dark berries and smoked meat. Expands and gains sweetness with air, finishing with substantial but harmonious tannins and very good length."

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.
An aromatic red grape lending perfume, red fruit and a leafy, savory edge. It thrives in the Loire and as a key blending partner in Bordeaux, especially Saint-Emilion.
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.
Produces plush, supple, fruit-forward reds with plum and chocolate notes. Softer and earlier-maturing than Cabernet, it adds flesh and roundness to blends and stars in Right Bank Bordeaux.
