I certainly hope this is what aged Stags Leap Cabernet is supposed to taste like because I love it. Deep plum, blackberry, cedar and a long, long finish. So balanced now. I have loved this wine for a long time and believe it has gotten to a very happy place. Enjoy!

Poured several of this '02 Cab (stored in my cellar since purchase from winery) last night for guests, admittedly with some trepidation. Big positive surprise in having nice fruit, round smoothness, although not too deep or complex at this age. But after 12 years and at this price point, who could ask for more? All in all, a very nice performance from a well crafted wine.
