Really singing now. Decanted for 3-4 hours prior to drinking with flank steak, corn, mashed potatoes. Cherry, kirsch, cocoa nibs. The more feminine wine to the muscular SLV. I gave up my SLWC club shipments a few years ago, but this is a good reminder of what this winery is able to produce.

This is really quite fantastic. Rounded. Fresh. Fruit in place. Smooth. Cool - in no way over the top. This is IMO california Cab close to its best.

Past its prime. While identifiable as cab vs merlot, it definitely has entered a secondary/tertiary phase with a strong cedar vibe.

What I a nice surprise; I got at an auction as a mixed lot of SLWC for almost nothing, but this was excellent; mature, but beautiful clear ruby color; aged Bordeaux nose; good acidity; fruit fading a bit, but still nice finish and very good balance.

2019 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Hands of Time

Napa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more

4/13/2024 - AD_jutant Likes this wine: 88 points

Nose of bay leaf, liquorice root, and blackcurrant. Syrah shows clearly and it almost reminds me of carbonic macerated wines. Violets and squid ink, blackberry leaves. Oak is not very pronounced, but it’s certainly there.
Medium+ in body and alcohol with medium acidity and tannin. Eucalyptus, cigar wrapper, dry pu’er tea with its earthiness.
8+/18 but I like this one more than the Pine Ridge we just had.

Tasted it at the Stag's Leap Wine Cellars during a private tasting event. Excellently aged and preserved! Plenty of fruit is still there (for a 40 year old wine). Lots of powerful tertiary (mushrooms, old wood, barn, leather) but nothing unpleasant.

A private dinner (Restaurant Vlees & Co, Amsterdam, NL): Zesty and fresh, minerally and energetic, ripe but fresh orchard fruit, well-judged oak, good resonance and length. Light and elegant for a Napa Valley Chardonnay.

4/3/2024 - Janda_42 Likes this wine: 90 points

The wine was decanted off a small amount of sediment and aired for an hour.

Eye: Deep purple center, wet pink-red rim.

Nose: Tobacco, mesquite, cassis, oak spice, red fruit.

Palate: Soft velvet tannins. Well balanced acidity. Cacao, vanilla, meat, blood. Red fruit, black fruit. Black cherry kirsch. Light prune.

Finish: Bitter cacao nibs, mesquite. Lingering black cherry.

Overall: Still very youthful; but a real class act.

Disappointing given its price and reputation. Deep cherry red color edge to edge. Not much on the nose even on the second day. Plush on the palate but without a lot of definition. Dark chocolate, blueberry, black cherry, tobacco. Beautifull resolved tannins, nice acidity, good balance. Finishes moderately long with soft cherry notes. Became almost muddled with even a little air. Not a bad wine, but not great by any means. No idea how much longer this will drink without falling apart. I wouldn't wait.

Verry classy stuff. Silky smooth tannins. Irresistible texture. Classic old school napa cab. Will probably peak after 5-6 years in bottle, and mature for 12-14 years total.

This was a 100 pt wine when I bought it. It’s just amazing. This is the first bottle I’ve drunk /- so well balanced, round, kits of dark fruits, gentle tannins.

My wife usually doesn't like red, she said it's the best she's had! I'm no expert, but I agree, one of the best I've had.

1985 BORDEAUX AND CABERNET SAUVIGNON (Walnut Creek, Ca.): Nice, rich nose, deeper color in the glass than peers tonight, concentrated, intense, good acid, needs time to peak, bitter finish.

DEf taste the structure throughout. Black fruits with some red fruits. Tannins are aggressive isn’t beggining but kind of mellow out after about 7 seconds. Good acuity. This wine is ready if u are having with food. If not give it air or some bottle age. I feel like I did something. Wrong with this bottle. Definitely was exposed to some air for a short period of time It’s just not in harmony. It’s somewhat aggressive, tannic, dark fruit driven , it’s just not as pleasant to drink at the moment as I would’ve thought considering the price point. All in all. I say don’t open this for at least 3 years. Give it time to integrate an I’m sure u will enjoy it more than drinking it immediately
