Our 2019 The Leap Cabernet Sauvignon represents the distinctive personality of our estate vineyard and this fantastic vintage, showing a plethora of lovely dark berry fruits with layered richness and intensity. This wine is a classic example of Stags Leap District Cabernet, offering aromas and flavors of juicy blackcurrants, cassis, dark blackberry, and black cherry, alongside lifted, perfumed notes of wild violet and savory chaparral herbs. Full of depth and generosity, this Cabernet is vibrant, viscous, and brooding, with mouth-enveloping texture and balance. With full-bodied elegance and structure, secondary notes of graphite, espresso, dark chocolate, and black licorice come through on the lengthy finish alongside silky, mouth-coating tannins, and freshness.

Another terrific wine from this team is the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon The Leap, a red and blue-fruited, medium to full-bodied, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon. It has nicely integrated background oak, some classic Cabernet herbal, earthy, floral nuances, fine tannins, and outstanding length. Drink bottles over the coming 15 years.

Very solid, with singed alder and warm earth accents running along the edges of a core featuring steeped plum, boysenberry and blackberry compote. Not shy with the fruit but has the spine for balance. Best from 2023 through 2034. 5,418 cases made.
