The Cliff Lede Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap 2014 is a quintessential Napa Valley wine, hailing from the renowned Stags Leap District, celebrated for its ability to produce Cabernet with both power and finesse. The 2014 vintage, marked by concentrated fruit and structure, offers a deep garnet hue and an inviting nose of black cherry, cassis, and violets, with hints of graphite and spice adding intrigue. On the palate, it is plush yet precise, with velvety tannins and bright acidity framing flavors of dark fruit, cocoa, and subtle oak. The wine’s complexity reflects Cliff Lede’s dedication to sustainable farming and meticulous winemaking, with grapes hand-harvested from estate vineyards. The finish is long and expressive, with mineral and spice notes that linger. Ideal for pairing with roasted duck or aged gouda, this Cabernet is approachable now but will continue to evolve beautifully over the next 15-20 years, making it a collector’s delight and a testament to Napa’s winemaking excellence.
