Pine Ridge Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

Opulent and polished Cabernet Sauvignon with a deep plum and cherry fruit profile, balanced by oak and cocoa notes, with mellow tannins and a long, comforting finish. A remarkable Napa Valley wine that I highly recommend.

Truly extraordinary vintage for a special occasion like Christmas dinner. The rich, full-bodied suggestions of the 2018 Napa cabernet blend seamlessly together, with dark fruit, oak, and a note of alcohol giving way to nuanced floral suggestions and a fulfilling finish. A truly outstanding wine that's well worth seeking out.

Rich, full-bodied red wine with a deep, velvety color. The nose is clean and refined, with gentle undertones of cedar, vanilla, and earthy undertones. The tasting is dry, with a consistent brightness and silky tannins that integrate smoothly. The accents are complex, with a pronounced intensity of bitter spices, chocolate, and meat, tempered by a subtle minerality. The finale is medium, with a pleasing lingering quality.
