Medium Ruby. Classic cab nose. with red fruits, plums, cassis, and spice. Sleek and silky, this is a work that has progressed. Velvet entry, a solid center and a 4&1/2 lapper finish. A texr-book Stags Leap cab that still needs another 2-4 to shed some soft tannins. Killer juice.90/93. 29 by the box. WW

This hummer has hit the TOIG! Lovely brite ruby with some rimming. Nose has expanded with the addition of some creamy cassis notes and a lite saddle leather component that adds character. Tannins are completely resolved and the mouthfeel is liquid velvet. Take this 4+ lapper up to a solid 92. WW
