Stag's Leap Wine Cellars S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon 2022 (750 ml) Tasting Notes

S.L.V., also known as Stag's Leap Vineyards, is the winery's first vineyard. Planted in 1970, this vineyard achieved international fame when three-year old vines from the 1973 harvest produced a wine that stunned the wine world when it bested some of France’s greatest wines in a 1976 blind tasting known as the "Judgment of Paris." Today, this history-making vineyard continues to produce wines with layers of complexity, spicy intensity and excellent structure—promising long life and ageability.

The 2022 S.L.V. Cabernet Sauvignon has generous aromas of violet, plum dark fruit, cocoa dust and graphite. On the palate the wine has a rich, gravelly structure with pure fruit, dusty tannins and a long, savory finish. The tannin structure, dark fruit, and pleasing minerality point to this wine’s ability to age.

Enjoy with Dirty Rice and Andouille Sausage, Birria Beef Tacos, or Mushroom Ravioli with Arrabiata Sauce.

Critic Ratings

James Suckling Review - Rated 96:
The wine is still somewhat reserved, but it already shows the depth and structure expected from this estate-grown bottling. Blackberry, dried blueberry and crème de cassis flavors are layered with cedar and cinnamon. Fine-grained, velvety tannins are well integrated, and the wine should show its best from 2029.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate Review - Rated 95:
Black cherry and cassis lead the profile, with dark chocolate adding a savory layer. The palate is full-bodied, rich and velvety, with an open-knit ease that makes the concentration feel polished. Freshness carries through a long, lingering finish.

Wine Enthusiast Review - Rated 94:
Earthy, resinous forest tones lift the dark fruit and integrated oak spice. Wild herbs, dusty cocoa and graphite build through the palate. The tannins provide ageworthy structure while preserving a silky mouthfeel and a long finish.
