"The top cuvee is the Mourvèdre-dominated 2005 Panoplie, which incorporates 25% Grenache and 5% Syrah, and is raised mostly in foudre. It's a richer, broader, more meaty and textured example of the Esprit cuvee, and gives up terrific aromatics of smoked meats, roasted herbs, black cherries, currants and earth. Possessing awesome purity, as well as elegance . . ."

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.
A warm-climate red giving generous, high-alcohol wines of red fruit and spice. It anchors southern Rhone blends and old-vine wines in Spain and Australia.
A late-ripening red lending structure, dark fruit and gamey, meaty complexity to southern Rhone and Mediterranean blends.
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.
