Impressive from our Oregon trip last year! 2013 is cooler vintage and this wine had density and depth of volcanic minerality. β 9 years ago
It is drinking so well, I got for 10 bucks!! β 11 years ago
Blend of mostly Cabernet Sauvignon, with splashes of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Malbec all SLD estate fruit, deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits, oak and sweet spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry, cherry and currants with tobacco and herb spice. Fine smooth tannins, approachable, long finish ending with fruit, oak, spice and herb mineral character. Nice! β 6 months ago
My go to Sauvignon Blanc- tastes like summer, nice grapefruit and apricot notes. β 5 years ago
Dark Ruby. Lovely aromatics, violets, roses, flower garden that blossomed into a nice layered flavor trove of chocolate dipped cherry and toasted cinnamon stick. Perfect compliment to a NY Strip. β 7 years ago

I love Stags Leap and this one is crazy reasonable and so good. Cherry flavored, soft on pallet. Beautiful wine. β 11 years ago
For a luxury Napa blue chip, it's always a really solid wine. At least it doesn't take on that wet dog smell like so many of the others. Talkin' hyper-expensive ones too. β 12 years ago
Even the hands of time come to a halt. Now discontinued, this was a familiar and accessible goto bottle which rarely disappointed. This is one of their last vintages and nearing its peak drinkabilityβ¦ Iβm gonna miss seeing this label at restaurant lists, shop shelves and impromptu gatherings π β 6 months ago
Nose of pear & apricot, body has a mineral presence with white fruit and pleasant body with medium finish. β 9 months ago
Extremely Niceβ¦ in all aspects β 5 years ago
Dark garnet colored with a slight brick colored meniscus on the edges. Dark fruit, cedar, black olives and leather on the nose. Bold tastes of black plums, figs, cherry cola, and licorice wrapped in silky tannins and perfect acidity. A great finish. Kudos to my friend Steve Reynolds for making such an unbelievably great wine. This wine is not showing any signs of letting up. A true heavyweight Cabernet at a great price. β 6 years ago
Smooth and drinking well but curious to see what this is like in 25 years β 9 years ago
