"Already bottled, the 2017 Grenache is made from 100% Alban clone 2 Grenache and spent 14 months in neutral oak. It reveals a pale to medium garnet-purple color with fantastically intense raspberry tart, Morello cherries and redcurrant jelly scents plus underlying wafts of roses, tilled soil and Ceylon tea. Full-bodied and firmly structured, with bags of bright, crunchy red berry flavors, it has a plush texture and a lively backbone, finishing long and perfumed."

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.
2017 in Napa Valley saw a wet winter, a scorching Labor Day heat spike and October wildfires; Cabernet picked before the fires is ripe and generous, but quality is variable across this challenging vintage.
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.
