Like its predecessor, this 2023 vintage continues the signature Stags Leap styling that embodies an old world meets new world impression. Handcrafted from the same two distinctive sites - a rocky hillside in Stags Leap and a small grower site just north of St. Helena - the wine opens with aromas of dark cherry, black currant, and elegant floral notes of violet alongside earthy bramble.
True to its lineage, it exhibits the rich complexity of concentrated dark fruits and pronounced minerality with balanced intensity, while the layers of this youthful vintage showcase the unmistakable terroir of these vineyards with the added freshness and natural acidity that defines the cooler 2023 growing season.
