Friday, August 8, 2014 - Drank subsequent to the Cliff Lede Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 at a birthday dinner party. Although very good, it lacked the finesse, smoothness, and elegance displayed by its Stag's Leap counterpart. As expected the Yverdon's Spring Mountain roots reflected a big and still very structured wine. Even with a short decant, it was still a bit tight and never seemed to really open completely. A bit shy it did start to show dark fruits and some earthiness underscored with a slight touch of oak. Solid finish. Recommend a long decant and hearty food. This will develop for another 8-10 years.
