The 1992 Cabernet Sauvignon Stags Leap Vineyard displays complexity, a deep ruby/purple color, a jammy, plum, and curranty-scented nose, a velvety texture, and a medium to full-bodied personality with well-integrated spicy notes. It should drink well for at least a decade.
This winery enjoys a much deserved fine reputation for its bevy of complex, elegant, authoritatively flavorful red wines, particularly the Fay Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon and the Cask 23 Proprietary Red Wine, the latter one of California's benchmark wines. The white wine program has been less impressive, although progress is evident with each new vintage.
