"The single-varietal 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap District is deep garnet-purple colored. It crackles and pops with energetic black and blue fruits scents - wild blueberries, juicy blackberries, and crushed plums - plus nuances of roses, underbrush, and bay leaves. The full-bodied palate delivers vibrant black fruits with a velvety texture and compelling tension, finishing long with a floral lift."

Tasting notes

Our 2019 Stags Leap opens with powerful aromas of ripe cherry and juicy plum interwoven with subtle floral notes, star anise and wet stone. The bright acidity on the palate enhances silky, opulent, concentrated tannins layered with a note of gravelly minerality. A wonderfully balanced vintage that showcases the unique terroir of this singular appellation.

Vineyard notes

Stags Leap District

Situated between the Stags Leap Palisades rock formation and the Napa River on the eastern side of Napa Valley.

Marine Breeze

Proximity to the San Pablo Bay is pivotal in the climatic nuance. Evening marine breezes usher in lower nighttime temperatures, helping retain acidity.

Rugged Terrain

Our vineyards find their roots at the eastern end of the appellation. Volcanic parentage has laid the foundation for deeply complex wines.

Wine Facts

We source our fruit from a small enclave within the Stags Leap District. The vineyard is bounded on the east by the warming Stags Leap Palisades, on the west by rolling hills and the Napa River, on the north by the Yountville Cross Road, and on the south by flatlands. The dramatic diurnal shifts, emanating from the San Pablo Bay influences, ushers in cool nighttime air, which helps the grapes retain their tell-tale fresh acidity. The wine possesses bright red berry and plum flavors, with a vibrant and lengthy core of tannin.

Vintage Notes

Our 2019 growing season began with ample rainfall and lingering soil moisture. A warm, extended summer saw very few extreme heat events, with foggy mornings setting the stage for vibrant and expressive wines. The long, relatively mild finish to the season helped to preserve freshness and balance in the fruit with hang time that allowed for impressive color, structure and tannin. This is an exceptional vintage defined by well integrated acidity, dense texture, and great depth.
