2009 CABERNET SAUVIGNON, Fay Vineyard, Stag’s Leap. Napa Valley, California (3 litre bottle)

Stag’s Leap is the name of both the winery and the sub-district of Napa Valley. This estate and it’s then winemaker Warren Winiarski won worldwide renown when their 1973 won the famous 1976 wine tasting at which California Cabernets were pitted against the five Bordeaux ‘first growths’. Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars has maintained exemplary consistency since then.
The Stag’s Leap district is a hillside region just south of Oakville, east of the town of Yountville, and home to some of Napa’s finest reds.
‘Fay’ is, along with ‘SLV’, one of their two key vineyards.

Incredibly rare to find a mature Fay Vineyard in this format.
