Welcome friends to Dr Todds wine bar. Today we are tasting Artemis by Stag's Leap Wine Cellars. This is the 2012 Cab. It is their cheapest cab and its still 45 dollars. Imagine that! My taste is too expensive for my wallet!
The cork has a perfect absorption line with a very very small rim in perfect lineage! no breaks . The color is opaque and dark purple / black just like I like it. The legs are long at 5 sec. The initial boquet is a bit disappointing. There is a hint of perfume. But if we let it breathe for 15 min, its gone. Then we have ripe plum. The initial palate is sour apple and sweet plum. Sweet and sour like youve never had! There is no spice. The finish is amazing. This is where it gets good! It is very dry but not to the point of not being able to move your mouth. The tongue has a dry grip on the lower half from the base to the tip. Then its gone!!!!! No aftertast at all. The one thing about this wine is it never lets you down! its always the same. A great wine for the price. — 11 years ago

Popped 1 of my 3 bottles to celebrate two friends turning 50 at Factory Kitchen. 50 year old California Cab with finesse, balance, and though I wouldn't expect it to improve over time, it was fantastic and quintessential old school cab from without a doubt one of my favorite California producers. Just lovely! — 11 years ago

Used the coravin in Jan 2014 to try a taste. Just finished the magnum bottle with friends and rack of lamb. Complex mountain cab with casis, fruit and a perfumed finish. Wonderful wine. — 11 years ago

1994 opus celebrating daughters birth year with her childhood friends. This is what great wine cellaring is for. Minerals clay black olive and soft cherry. Beautiful hues with plenty of time still to age. Maybe we'll save the other bottle for their 30th!! — 11 years ago

Alive, fresh and stunning.
Medium bodied, core of bright fruit in the center with a meaty exterior. Soy sauce. Cassis. Incredible. Birthday dinner with friends and an amazing line up of wines.

Puré Cheval complexity, a little sea foam funkiness. All in all, a sublime pleasure with the best of friends. — 11 years ago
