Although indigenous to the French region of Bordeaux, the cabernet sauvignon grape has found a permanent home in the lush Napa Valley. Now known as California's wine mecca, the Napa Valley is overwhelming fond of their cabernet sauvignon. It took a showdown at the 1976 Paris wine tasting event for Napa Valley to strut its stuff against the big dogs of the French world, and a few local wines made an impressive showing. Since then, producers have continued to master cabernet sauvignon production, and it seems things just keep getting better and better for this bold and amazing wine.

A great cabernet sauvignon features incredible depth and body, vibrant fruity and woodsy notes, and a dry, bold finish. The color is deep and dramatic, and the aroma can be a showstopper. Many examples of Napa Valley cabernet sauvignon showcase all these traits and so much more.

Shining Examples of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Since Napa Valley is most famous for its cabernet sauvignon production, you can bet there are plenty of stellar options. Inglenook was one of the first local producers to master the art of the cab, and many consider this winery to be the godfather of the Napa Valley cabernet. Stags' Leap, Robert Mondavi, and Caymus Vineyards are also trusted and acclaimed wineries.
