L 'ambaixada nord - americana a Londres va acollir una degustació de Napa Cabernets organitzada pel Vinyers de Napa Valley . Els 14 cellers convidats a abocar els seus vins van portar dues anyades de deu anys de diferència. No hi havia cap programa darrere de l'esdeveniment, però sí que va donar als tastadors l'oportunitat de controlar l'evolució dels vins dels millors productors. En la majoria dels casos, la verema jove va ser el 2015 o el 2016 i la més antiga, el 2005 o el 2006.
Totes eren bones anyades, de manera que la qualitat era o hauria d’haver estat constantment alta. De fet, els vins oscil·laven entre molt bons i excel·lents, ja que hom esperaria tenint en compte que tenien un preu d'entre 100 i 500 lliures. Harlan Estate va ser probablement el vi més car, de manera que vaig preguntar al seu gerent, Don Weaver, què ha canviat entre el 2005 i el 2015. No va dubtar: ‘Hi ha variació de verema, és clar. A part, l'únic canvi significatiu ha estat que les vinyes són més velles i més equilibrades. Però Harlan continua sent el mateix lloc, amb el mateix equip a la vinya i al celler. '
Això seria cert per a moltes propietats aquí. És cert que a Califòrnia és pràctica habitual comprar raïm als productors contractats, de manera que les fonts poden variar d’un any a l’altre. Però la majoria dels vins aquí provenien de vinyes individuals, com Tor’s To Kalon o Heitz’s Martha’s Vineyard.
