The deep ruby/purple-colored 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon, a blend of 85% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Malbec and 5% Petit Verdot, exhibits abundant notes of creme de cassis and flowers along with stunning purity, elegance and richness. There is not a hard edge to be found in this fully mature, gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon. A classic from Stags Leap, it hits all the sweet spots on the palate, and should drink well for another decade. - Robert Parker

Plush and concentrated yet elegant and stylish with vivid black cherry blackberry and black currant fruit that provides a tight ripe focus. Picks up nice loamy earth and cedary oak character on the finish where the flavors are pure and persistent. Drink now through 2014. 1673 cases made. -JL
