| Description: | Stag's Leap Wine Cellars was founded in 1970, a time when the Napa Valley was undergoing a wine renaissance after the devastating effects of Prohibition. Although there had once been some 140 wineries in the valley, there were fewer than 20 by the mid-1960s. Then in 1976 at the famous Judgement of Paris, Stag's Leap 1973 S.l.v. Cabernet won the competition by besting top estates in Bordeaux including Chateau Mouton Rothschild and Chateau Haut-Brion. The legend and legacy of Stag's Leap Wine Cellars had begun. The 2018 Cask 23 combines the signature perfume notes of Fay vineyard with the structure and dark fruit of S.l.v. The wine opens with complex and expressive aromas of dark fruits, currants and figs along with hints of floral spice, sandalwood and wet stone. The wine has a vibrant taste and texture with the winery's classic "Peacock's Tail" that expands in the mouth and leads to a lingering aftertaste and finish. Enjoy this Cask 23 with Chicken Marsala, Grilled Flank Steak with Plum Salsa, or Spiced Duck Breast with Wilted Arugula Risotto. |
