A 1976 vintage wine that has stood the test of time, its luscious and detailed character has been honed over the years, with a profound aroma that includes layered blackcurrant, black plum, and violets, matched by nuanced flavors of dusty cocoa powder, clove, and wet stone, tempered by a touch of graphite, yielding a dry and structured linger with high tannins and bright acidity, a testament to its enduring quality.

What the web is saying

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon is praised for its rich, full-bodied profile, featuring flavors of blackcurrant, plum, and chocolate. While some appreciate its smooth tannins and complex layers, others find it overly oaked or lacking in texture.

Voss Experts4.5

This Stag's Leap Wine Cellars S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon is a complex and balanced wine, with aromas and flavors of black cherry, blackberry, and cassis along with nuances of cedar, forest floor, and bay leaf. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured with a firm tannic backbone. The finish is long and lingering, with hints of mocha, anise, and baking spices. An ideal wine to enjoy with savory dishes.
