Cabernet Sauvignon is the most influential red grape in the United States — but it doesn’t taste the same everywhere.

In this course, you’ll explore American Cabernet through its benchmark expressions, comparing how climate, geography, and winemaking philosophy shape the grape across top regions like Napa Valley, Washington State, and beyond. Rather than memorizing regions or producers, you’ll learn how to recognize style, understand structure, and explain differences with confidence.

This is Cabernet as it actually exists in the glass — not as a single flavor profile.

Who is This Course For?

• Anyone curious about the key styles of American Cabernet Sauvignon
• Professionals who want to feel confident ordering, selling, or discussing Cabernet
• Hospitality workers who need practical, real-world wine understanding
