Cabernet Sauvignon S. L. V. 2010 Stag's Leap

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (94)

The estate’s 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate SLV emerges from a parcel next to Fay, but here the terrain is much richer in stones and therefore traps the daytime heat to a far greater extent. Ash, smoke, slate, plums and blackberries are some of the many notes that burst from the glass. The SLV is a big, tannic wine, especially in this vintage. There is more than enough tension and sheer energy to allow for years of great drinking, once the wine softens a bit.

Lovely delicacy to this 2011 cab with blueberry, dark-berry and chocolate character. Medium to full body with fine tannins and a succulent, juicy finish. A classic-styled Napa cab with finesse and beauty.
