Steltzner Vineyard Old Vines Cabernet Sauvignon 2023

2023 vintage. Tasted via Coravin. Love me some SLD cabbage. Medium-medium heavy body. Earthy, loamy, cocoa powdery nose. Striated richness throughout with sleek raspberry and baking chocolate accents. Wow. Phenomenal shizz. Picked up a 3-pack. Top 5 Napa new vintage cab tasted in 2025 (and tasted waay too many new Best In Show wannabe's this year). 09.25.25. — 9 months ago

All of the 23’s I’ve had so far show nicely. It’s early but 23 could end up better than, 97, 07, 13 down its evolutionary path.

So sad they have sold their vineyards to Plumpjack. Just a great, and well balance bottle of cab that can go another 5-10 years — 10 years ago

4 Winds Winery

Stag's Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon

2012 4 winds Cabernet Sauvignon from Thomas Rivers Brown. Fruit sourced from the Steltzner Vineyard in the Stags Leap District. This is by far one of my favorite wines from the 2012 vintage. Great fruit, medium plus body. On the palate Smokey red fruit, cigar box smooth tannins and creme de cassis. Long finish. Great food wine. There is passion in this bottle. Can't wait to see where this bottle goes with 5 to 10 years rest! — 11 years ago

Stags Leap District Malbec 2006

A 14-year-old Malbec. Wow. Inky purple in the glass. The cork is so deep purple; it's almost black. Even without aeration, I knew this was going to be amazing. The nose has notes of raisins and chocolate after some time in the glass. The palate speaks of black currents and black cherries, with a little lavender in the finish. — 6 years ago

Nice. Though noticing the premier cru sticker, John fox could have switcherooed your '78 for an '08. But likely it's just an awesome wine and the '70s rocked in many ways.
