The 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap (75% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot Malbec Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc) is everything that one expects in a wine from this sector that is known for elegance harmony and Margaux-like finesse. A perfectly balanced Cabernet it exhibits a dense purple color along with a big sweet nose of spring flowers black and red currants as well as graphite. It is deep rich young and promising with plenty of tannin but an unmistakable profound minerality. Although accessible 2-3 years of bottle age will be beneficial and the wine should age for two decades.
