This Napa Cabernet is always delicious. Showing black fruits with cedar, vanilla, leather, earth, chocolates, tobacco, spices, peppercorn, chocolates and herbs.
Spicy and bold with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice length on the finish and firm tannins.
Still young and needs 5 to 10 years of bottle time to mature properly.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$46.

A dear friend shared this wine with me and it is delicious! I only wish we had paired this with some steaks! Dark purplish black in color. Opulent concentrated fruit with layers of flavor. Licorice, leather, tobacco, blackberry and blueberry. Some spice and pepper. This wine is young and decanting is advised. This wine should age quite beautifully. Cellar worthy.

2015 was an early harvest in Napa, but the fruit was very good, as this bottle demonstrates. At ten years of age, this wine is giving me a wonderful feeling in my mouth, with soft, leathery tannins. It's not jammy but rather has dark cherry, cedar, and eucalyptus on the palette. It could lay down a few more years, but it's superb today. I got lucky, this bottle was at my grocer's surrounded by 2020's. Grab a bottle if you see one.

What better than drinking a well rounded full bodied Stags’ Leap here in the bush of South Africa??! Okay, got it. No deer here but antilope. But they can sure leap! As this wine did to me 😁. Really enjoyed it. Very rich with the fairly heavy oak foot print fully integrated with the dark red and blue fruit giving it an intriguing ride and a desiring finish for more.
