"The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Stones No. 1 comes from the Beckstoffer Las Piedras vineyard in St. Helena. This is sensational Cabernet Sauvignon – black/ruby/purple with lots of cassis, a hint of lead pencil shavings, licorice and white chocolate. The wine has superb texture, an opulent, full-bodied mouthfeel, and a rich, layered finish."

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.
St. Helena is a warm valley-floor sub-AVA in Napa Valley, California, producing rich, ripe and generously fruited Cabernet Sauvignon of supple tannins, plush texture and classic Napa structure.
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.
