Where It's From

Region / California

View more wines from California

When it comes to US wine production, California is King. California wines account for almost 90% of all wines produced in the United States each year, and is home to the most celebrated vineyards and producers in the country. California is probably best known for its world-famous Cabernets and Chardonnays, many of which hail from its two most-acclaimed AVAs, Napa Valley and Sonoma County. Other prominent grapes used in California wines include Merlot, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Syrah, and Zinfandel (which California made popular).

The United States now ranks fourth in the world in wine production behind, France, Italy, and Spain. While about 90% of that wine is produced in California, other states like Oregon, New York, and Washington are establishing themselves as prime spots for wine production, as well. Just about any variety of wine can be found in production somewhere in the United States.

This full-bodied, hardy red maintains an element of freshness throughout. An underlying herbaceous and earthy tone balances out the rich, ripe fruit structure. Find notes of black cherry, black plum, licorice, cacao, fresh fennel, dried tobacco, cumin and black tea. (Stacy Briscoe)

Rich and handsomely structured, this blend is generous, with black cherry, toasty spice and licorice flavors as this builds tension toward refined tannins. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2031. 6,077 cases made. (Tim Fish)

VN9393 pts. - Vinous - Dec 2023
The 2021 Merlot is packed with dark blue/purplish fruit, new leather, spice, tobacco, mocha and licorice. Juicy and enveloping, with terrific energy, the Merlot is absolutely delicious. The brighter style here is so compelling. Plush contours wrap it all together. (Antonio Galloni)
JD9292 pts. - Jeb Dunnuck - 12/26/2023
Lots of red plums, darker chocolate, and tobacco notes emerge from the 2021 Merlot, a beautifully textured, medium-bodied Pomerol look-alike that has fine tannins, notable purity, and a great finish. It’s beautifully done and an utterly delicious, satisfying Merlot to drink over the coming decade. (Jeb Dunnuck)

Notes of dark berries, dried cherries, licorice and dark chocolate. Medium- to full-bodied, spiced and dark-fruited with chalky, slightly dry tannins. Succulent finish. A little earthy at the end. Sustainable. Drink or hold. (James Suckling)
