Stag`s Leap Cask 23 2002 is a flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from the Stag`s Leap District estate in Napa Valley. This cuvée is a blend of the finest fruit from the estate’s SLV and Fay vineyards. It offers a complex nose of blackcurrants, cedar and violets, with a palate that is both powerful and refined. Now at its peak of maturity, the tannins have become wonderfully integrated, creating a seamless and velvety texture. It is a monumental expression of Napa Cabernet that pays homage to the estate’s historic victory at the 1976 Judgment of Paris, showcasing the unique volcanic terroir of the region.

Vinous
Bright, full ruby-red. Aromas of dark raspberry, dark chocolate and cola. Bigger and broader than the Fay but with less obvious early sweetness. Very ripe, spicy flavors of dark chocolate, espresso and coffee offer noteworthy depth. Spreads out horizontally to coat the palate on the back end, finishing with dusty, fine, building tannins.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2006
