Description

Stag’s Leap Artemis Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Stag's Leap "Artemis" Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Merlot and 1% Malbec.

A voluptuous, richly textured and full-bodied Californian Cabernet Sauvignon from a world famous winery. Inviting aromas of ripe boysenberry and black cherry with hints of cedar and tobacco spices waft from the glass. The earthy palate has a lovely balance, vibrant acidity and firm tannins. It offers complex flavours of dark plums, black cherries, dark chocolate, roasted espresso, leather, earth and a touch of toasted oak. The plum and sweet spices finish is rich and lingering. Nothing short of delicious!

Fun fact: Artemis is named after the Greek Goddess of the Hunt. The Stag's Leap signature style has often been described as “an iron fist in a velvet glove”. A reference to the artful balance between ripeness and restraint, softness and structure, that yields Napa Valley wines of exceptional beauty and long life. Sourced from the estate's prime vineyards. The wine was aged for 16 months in 43% new oak barriques (38% French and 5% American), thereafter balanced in older French and American oak.
