All the District Collection series are around 500 cases or less, and they give an incredible insight into the different appellations in the valley. Starting with the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon District Collection Stags Leap, it has perfumed red and black fruits and tobacco notes to go with full-bodied richness and a seamless, layered texture on the palate. Stags Leap is a cooler region, and you see that in the aromatics, but this brings serious fruit on the palate without losing its sense of finesse. It’s beautifully done and will evolve for 15-20 years.
Our Stag’s Leap Cabernet Sauvignon is a dense purple color in the glass and opens with aromas of bright red fruits and floral notes. On the palate, flavors of black currant lead to a medium to full body, supple tannins and a long, silky finish. This is a wine to be enjoyed now or cellared for the next 10+ years.
