Discover the grape variety: Cabernet-Sauvignon

Structured, tannic reds, deeply coloured, with aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, tobacco and graphite, underpinned by firm acidity and fine ageing potential. Cornerstone of the great Médoc estates (Pauillac, Saint-Estèphe, Saint-Julien) and signature of Napa Valley, Coonawarra and Maipo. The world's most planted red variety, a natural cross of Cabernet Franc x Sauvignon Blanc born in Bordeaux.

AVA in the northeast of Russian River Valley in Sonoma (21,000 acres): signature emblematic Chardonnay — rich and full-bodied with creamy texture, signature mineral character from volcanic ash. Exceptional Sauvignon Blanc alongside Semillon. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot on warm pockets. Powdery white tuff soils from Mount St.


The wine region of California

Opulent, buttery Chardonnay, notes of yellow fruit and vanilla. Varied climate, from the hot interior to the Pacific-cooled coast. 80% of US production, 139 AVAs including Napa (1st AVA, 1981).
