The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap District shows off considerable focus and depth not to mention terrific overall balance. Dark plums cherries spices licorice and cassis are some of the notes that flow from this long pure wine. Today the tannins are a bit compact but bottle age should help to some degree. The 2009 is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon 6% Petit Verdot 2% Malbec 1% Cabernet Franc and 1% Merlot. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024.
