The 2022 ‘SV’ Limited Production Estate Cabernet Sauvignon offers a refined expression of Stags Leap District terroir, showcasing vibrant aromas of wild strawberry, sage, and subtle bay leaf.
On the palate, it delivers a balanced profile of Bing cherry and blueberry compote, layered with nuanced notes of barn-dried tobacco and cocoa nibs from 20 months in new French oak. The tannins are broad yet slightly drying, providing structure without overpowering the fresh fruit character. This wine is elegant and approachable now but will develop further complexity with age. It shares a refined balance reminiscent of classic Stags Leap Cabernets, combining power with freshness.
Serve it alongside grilled lamb or a rich mushroom risotto to complement its depth and savory undertones.
