"Entirely from a vineyard in the Stags Leap District, which is a little cooler than mid-Napa appellations. This gorgeous, sumptuous, fully ripened wine has aromas of blackcurrants, mushrooms, coffee and sage. In the mouth, it has classic cabernet flavors and structure. The tannins are a wonder, rich and thick but easy and delicious. A total delight to sip, and it will age, too."
