Hello Michael,
We have a Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon that is a complete knockout and undervalued at this price point. Cliff Lede Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap District 2019 was sent to me by a close friend as a gift, immediately and I mean within minutes of taking the first sip, I was on the phone trying to secure enough for our customers. This is a structured and succulent Cabernet Sauvignon that will hold for a decade or so, but is drinking just fine now with a bit of decanting. Enough acidity to hold up to fatty meats and layered enough to bring pleasure to the palate on its own.
Winery Notes:
The fruit was sourced from the hillside terraces of our Poetry Vineyard, our Twin Peaks Vineyard estate surrounding the winery, and a few neighboring vineyards in the Stags Leap District. The wine is composed of small lots from our best blocks, representing a diverse range of carefully selected clones and rootstocks. From Poetry’s exposed, rocky terraces boasting volcanic origins, to the ancient riverbed alluvial soils of Twin Peaks, the breadth of contributing sites translates into a wine of impressive complexity.
Review:
This wine substantially overdelivers on its price point, presenting a dark fruit profile, generous tannin and oak, and an expansive full-bodied style. Blended with 8% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 3% Petit Verdot, it is approachable while never forgetting its structured, complex roots.
