"The 2016 Petite Syrah Rattlesnake Ridge is endowed with magnificent depth. Plush, deep and beautifully resonant on the palate, the Rattlesnake Ridge is fabulous. Low yields produced a decidedly unctuous, flamboyant wine with unusually soft tannins for a Howell Mountain wine. In a lineup full of distinctive wines, the Rattlesnake Ridge shines."

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.
California's most prestigious wine region, celebrated worldwide for opulent, structured Cabernet Sauvignon. Diverse soils and mountain-to-valley-floor sites yield wines of remarkable ripeness, power and longevity.
A high-elevation Napa AVA above the fog line, producing intensely concentrated, firmly structured mountain Cabernet built for long aging.
2016 in Napa Valley capped a run of drought years with a near-ideal, balanced growing season; the Cabernets are ripe, structured and classically proportioned, powerful yet balanced, with fine tannins and excellent aging potential.
