S.L.V., also known as Stag’s Leap Vineyards, is the winery’s first vineyard. Planted in 1970, this vineyard achieved international fame when three-year old vines from the 1973 harvest produced a wine that stunned the wine world when it bested some of France’s greatest wines in a 1976 blind tasting known as the “Judgment of Paris.” Today, this history-making vineyard continues to produce wines with layers of complexity, spicy intensity and excellent structure—promising long life and ageability.
A rare find from the stellar SLV vineyard, the 1992 vintage is composed of 97.3% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2.7% Petit Verdot. Black cherry and cassis on the nose, together with leather and tobacco complexity. Gentle tannins with lush berries and earthy maturity on the palate. The perfect match for a mushroom risotto.
