Stags’ Leap Winery, established 150 years ago, revolutionized Napa Valley by planting its first vineyards in the Palisades foothills. In tribute to this historic beginning, we are excited to introduce our Limited Edition Cabernet Sauvignon, showcasing the strength and elegance synonymous with our brand. This wine not only represents our pioneering spirit but also reflects the sophistication and balance that has become a hallmark of Stags’ Leap Winery.
Crafted from select vineyards across Napa Valley, this Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve is a rich and vibrant expression of the region. It captivates with an alluring bouquet of ripe blackberry and red cherry, complemented by floral and herbal notes such as dried rose petal and sage. The full-bodied wine offers an exquisite texture and layered depth on the palate, featuring flavors of juicy cassis, crushed rose, and chocolate. Its smooth finish, marked by soft tannins and lingering aromas, makes it a versatile pairing for various cuisines.

95 James Suckling This shows lots of perfumes, with blackcurrants, violets, licorice and tar. Full-bodied with chewy tannins and an underlying character of cedar, sandalwood and pine needles. The tannins are full and creamy, with a polished, velvety texture at the end. Delicious now, but better in three to five years, and beyond.
