Baldacci Family Vineyards Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon

Baldacci Family Vineyards Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Details
Price:

Description: Our second vintage, the 2001 Baldacci Family Vineyards Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon, shows the superior quality of what is truly an amazing vintage. A blend of 93.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6.5% Cabernet Franc, the wine is a classic deep ruby red brick color. This vintage has inviting aromas of black fruits, cedar, tobacco, and oak with hints of vanilla and white chocolate. The small amount of Cabernet Franc lends a soft elegance to the robust Cabernet Sauvignon, and together they create a mouth feel that is medium-bodied, velvety in texture with supple tannins and good acidity. The result is a powerful, yet accessible blend displaying all the depth, richness and finesse of a Stags Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon. Ready to drink now, or can be cellared for 5 to 10 years. Production limited to 1,000 cases.
